Jon Fitch Signs with World Series of Fighting.

by Shawn M. Smith on March 8, 2013

After his surprise release from the UFC, former UFC Welterweight contender Jon Fitch has reportedly signed a four-fight deal with World Series of Fighting. ESPN.com were the first to break the story.

Fitch is coming off a unanimous decision loss to Demian Maia at UFC 156. Great decision by Fitch, who presumably could be a few fights away from another stint in the Octagon but first he could be presumably headed toward a clash with the winner of the Aaron Simpson-Josh Burkman fight later on this year.
