David Branch successfully defended his World Series of Fighting middleweight title for the first time on Nov. 15.
Headlining the WSOF 15 card in Tampa, Florida, the 185-pound middleweight champion scored his fifth win under the promotion’s banner with a fourth-round finish over UFC veteran Yushin Okami.
The lightweight title wasn’t on the line, but Justin Gaethje vs. Melvin Guillard delivered in the co-main event.
Unbeaten in 12 professional fights coming into WSOF 15, the 155-pound champion Gaethje proved to have a great chin in the opening round against Guillard, who missed weight for the title fight. Gaethje moved forward the whole time, but Guillard was the one connecting the better shots.

i didnt get a chance to watch/dvr wsof and im pretty pissed i was looking forward to both of these fights and i missed them..
looks like guys from the ufc who venture out to other orgs arent doing so great this weekend.
losses in one night- nam phan, melvin guillard, yushin okami, and stephan bonnar.
id like to see both of the wsof champs in the ufc. i know branch had a short run with ufc but i think he has grown as a fighter since than and Garthje just seems like the real deal to me id love to see him move up in competition. i wouldnt even mind seeing him in bellator
