Michael Mersch, who this past summer quietly left the UFC after eight years with the industry leader, is joining the WSOF’s executive ranks with a similar title to his old job. WSOF officials today announced Mersch will act as the promotion’s COO and general counsel, joining CEO Carlos Silva in another high-profile addition eight months after Silva signed on. Prior to accepting the job, Mersch had worked as general counsel for the Nevada Attorney General’s Office, where he had previously worked as a senior counsel prior to working for the UFC.
