World Series of Fighting landed in Kansas City, Mo., on Friday night for WSOF 33, although it was a rough ride. The night’s main event was canceled earlier in the day.
WSOF lightweight champion Justin Gaethje was supposed to put his belt on the line against Ozzy Dugulubgov, but when Dugulubgov began getting headaches early in the day and his blood pressure dropped, officials called off the fight and sent him to the hospital for evaluation.
Light heavyweight champion David Branch took over the headlining spot, successfully defending his belt against Vinny Magalhaes with a dominant decision win.
