In what may very well be the best fight in the history of WSOF, lightweight champ Justin Gaethje (14-0) downed Luis Palomino (23-10) in an absolute barnburner.
Gaethje and Palomino met in the headlining bout of Saturday’s WSOF 19 event, which took place at Phoenix’s Comerica Theatre and aired on NBCSN. It was expected to deliver fireworks. It did more than that.
