WSOF returns, and it's finally on a night with no UFC or Bellator at the same time!

There's been some changes to this card, with the original co-main getting scrapped when Brian Cobb injured himself but falling off a treadmill. 

Main card kicks off on NBC Sports at 9pm ET following online prelims at 630pm.

So Brian Cobb was injured while running on the treadmill - artcile.

Was he trying to cut a last couple of pounds and just pushed himself to far or was it just a freak accident?

It's too bad for Condon's original opponent but also nice that Johnny Nunez still gets to fight. Nunez is a decent prospect at 5-0. Need to impress tonight.

Foster has the explosive strikes to pull this off like Ellenberger did, but he needs to throw heavy, early and often.  He doesn't stand a chance in hell of fighting off Shields if it goes more than a couple of minutes.

Dude was out for like 15 seconds before Winslow stopped it. First fight of the night, first near-death at the hands of Kim Winslow.

Great sportsmanship there by Trey Williams. Someone had to ref that fight, so Williams took it upon himself.

And these clowns want to compete with UFC.  Their 17th event, and every one has had streaming problems.  (Plus the fighter quality seems to drop a bit more each time.)

Ben. Why you gotta cheat? It was ruled a TKO. I earned this perfect. I have paid my dues since I was 4 years old. Stop it.
