Rousimar Palhares WSOF welterweight champ Rousimar Palhares understands that title challenger and fellow UFC vet Jon Fitch was angry at him, but he is ready to make amends. Fitch (26-6-1) blasted Palhares (16-6) when he withdrew from a title fight in July, calling the submission specialist’s decision “kind of disgusting.” Now, the two are set to meet in the headliner of WSOF 16, which takes place Saturday at McClellan Conference Center in Sacramento and airs live on NBCSN. Palhares doesn’t hold a grudge against Fitch, but he said he’s intent on having the last word in their relationship. “He did say that I was the last person on Earth he’d like to fight,” Palhares told MMAjunkie
