JUNIOR DOS SANTOS DEFEATS FABRICIO WERDUM BY SPLIT DECISION IN GAMEBRED BAREKNUCKLE
JACKSONVILLE, FL. – September 9, 2023 – MMA legends and former UFC Heavyweight Champions Junior “Cigano” Dos Santos (22-10) and Fabricio “Vai Cavalo” Werdum (24-10) went head-to-head in the main event of Jorge Masvidal’s Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA event Friday night from VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Fla. In a duel between two extremely experienced mixed martial artists, Dos Santos was able to do enough to best Werdum by split decision.
“I’m feeling awesome tonight,” exclaimed Dos Santos in victory. “I feel like it was an amazing fight.”
Near the end of the first round, Dos Santos cut Werdum over his right eye, causing it to bleed considerably. The second round featured a lot of stand-up action with Werdum attempting to lure Dos Santos to the canvas in the later stages of the round.
The third and final round saw Dos Santos use his punching prowess to nearly shut Werdum’s left eye, making it very difficult for Werdum to see and defend himself.
In the end, judge Barry Luxenberg scored the bout 29-28 in favor of Werdum, while judges Troy Wincapaw and Daniel Torres both had it 30-27 for Dos Santos.
“This was my first time fighting bare knuckle and I loved it,” continued Dos Santos. “It was amazing. I feel good. My hands are feeling a little sore, but that’s okay. I’m fighting someone that everyone knows was really well prepared. Everybody knows the legend that he is and I should avoid that ground game. You guys want me to go to the ground with that guy? No way! It’s jabs, crosses and hooks.”
With the win tonight, Dos Santos is now in line to face the winner of Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA’s next main event, which will see heavyweight brawlers Alan Belcher and Roy “Big Country” Nelson meet in an explosive clash on Saturday, October 28 from Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Miss. Additional details on that event to come.
The co-main event featured Joel “King Bau” Bauman (9-3) stopping Maki “Coconut Bombs” Pitolo (15-11) by technical knockout. As Bauman pummeled Pitolo with unanswered blows, referee Larry Folsom intervened and called a stop to the action at 2:36 of the second frame.
The featured bout of the evening showcased a fight between a pair of 135-pounders that appeared closer than the scorecards indicated. Joshua “Wide Open” Weems (12-3) topped Irwin “Beast” Rivera (12-7) by unanimous decision with judges Barry Luxenberg, Solimar Miranda and Daniel Torres all seeing the bout the same, 30-27 in favor of Weems.
In a featherweight attraction, Ago “The Bosnian Dragon” Huskic (9-5) defeated Brandon “Killer B” Davis (14-12) by unanimous decision. Judges Solimar Miranda, Daniel Torres and Troy Wicapaw all scored it 29-28 in favor of Huskic.
Anthony “The Assassin” Njokuani (17-13) scored a unanimous decision win over Brandon “The Human Highlight Reel” Jenkins (16-11) in a 165-pound matchup. Judges Daniel Torres and Troy Wincapaw both turned in scores of 29-28 and judge Barry Luxenberg saw it 30-27.
In a crowd-thrilling catchweight contest, Joey” El Cazador” Ruquet (10-4) beat Joe “The Party” Penafiel (11-7) by technical knockout. Ruquet cut Penafiel badly, knocked him to the canvas against the cage and rushed him with a flurry of punches that proved too much for Penafiel, causing referee Andrew Glenn to end the fight at the 3:01 mark of round two.
Jhonasky “La Maquina” Sojo (14-4) defeated Tyler “Zombie” Hill (11-8) by technical knockout in a catchweight scrap. Referee Larry Folsom stopped the fight 4:52 into the first stanza.
Jacksonville native and all-around sensational athlete, Reggie “Black Dragon” Northrup (2-0), defeated Cody “The Reason” Herbert (3-4) by unanimous decision. Judges Solimar Miranda and Daniel Torres both scored the contest 30-27, with judge Troy Wincapaw scoring it 30-26, all in favor of Northrup.
Shahzaib “King” Rind (1-0) made his professional MMA debut in style, defeating Carlos “Diamante” Guerra (7-8) by technical stoppage. Due to a series of unanswered blows, referee Andrew Glenn halted the catchweight bout action at the 2:40 mark in round one.
In the opening bout of the evening, featherweight Juan “Wild Child” Alvarez (2-0) stopped Christopher Wingate (1-2) with a heel hook submission just 13 seconds into the opening round.

Global Fight League Announces Initial Funding and Sets Launch Plan for New Team-Based MMA Property
The Global Fight League, a new team-based MMA property, today announced that it has successfully closed a multi-million-dollar seed round and is set to launch its first season in April 2025. The league will hold a virtual selection process to determine the fighters on each team on January 24, the details of which will be released in the coming weeks.
The GFL will combine team and city-based competition with a new level of empowerment for male and female fighters across all stages of their career, offering profit sharing on all events from the very start.
“Our new league is a logical evolution for MMA,” said Darren Owen, longtime global MMA event promoter, entrepreneur, and Founder of the Global Fight League. “Our mission is to embrace fighters as true equitable partners from inception and, together, create a format that can be understood by any sports fan. I’ve had hundreds of conversations with MMA legends and rising stars and our business plan is an extension of what I have heard from fighters who want a new way to compete and excel in the world’s fastest growing sport.”
Many of the sport’s most notable fighters have been assembled to compete in the inaugural GFL season including: Tyron Woodley, Luke Rockhold, Wanderlei Silva, Anthony Pettis, Fabricio Werdum, Junior Dos Santos, Andrei Arlovski, Frank Mir, Benson Henderson, Gegard Mousasi, Alexander Gustafsson, Hector Lombard, Kevin Lee, Abubakar Nurmagomedov, Hannah Goldy and Marlon Moraes, who will serve as the Head of the GFL’s Athlete Association.
The GFL is pioneering a 50% event-specific revenue share model that ensures athletes benefit from the league’s success. This revolutionary structure prioritizes fighters’ financial security and professional well-being.
The GFL is committed to providing unparalleled financial benefits while prioritizing fighter health and safety. Additionally, the league will actively work to eliminate extreme weight-cutting practices to foster a healthier and more sustainable environment for athletes. This initiative reflects the league’s commitment to protecting its athletes and promoting longevity in their careers.
The league will launch with six teams based in major global markets. Competitions will span the world, culminating in a playoff and a championship that will establish the GFL’s position as a world-class experience for athletes and fans alike. Teams will be coached by some of MMA’s most respected figures, including Rafael Cordeiro, with team managers such as Lyoto Machida bringing exceptional expertise.
Marlon Moraes, Head of the GFL Athlete Association, remarked, “This is a new chapter for fighters. The GFL is built on fairness, respect, and opportunity. Fighters now have a voice and a stake in the sport’s future.”
With MMA’s undeniable global popularity, the GFL is the natural progression of a sport that transcends borders. By combining a historically proven team-based league model with a commitment to athlete equity, the GFL aims to help the MMA industry innovate and set a new gold standard in professional sports.

PFL Presents Francis Ngannou vs Renan Ferreria On October 19th
youtube
So going as far back as March of 2024, Ngannou had stated that he would compete again in MMA, and the PFL, in my opinion have put together a heavyweight fight worthy of looking forward to.
There's a lot at stake here.
Francis Ngannou's foray into boxing was both positive and negative, where he looked very impressive against Tyson Fury and then was blown out of the water by Anthony Joshua 4 months later.
Then you have to factor the financial investment that the PFL have made in Francis, and it would look kind of crazy if the uncrowned UFC champion were to get dominated by a no name Brazilian who isn't even on the UFC's radar.
Then there's Renan Ferreira and the threat that he poses, and he is a guy that has some clout.
With wins over Ryan Bader and Fabricio Werdum (though later overturned to a no contest), means that Ferreira is the PFL's standout heavyweight, and unlike Ngannou has been very active over the last 2 years.
youtube
Ngannou's last MMA bout took place all the way back in January of 2022, against Cyril Gane, and Ferreira is a very different opponent to Gane.
Firstly, is Renan Ferreira's jiu-jitsu background, which he used to great effect in his 2023 bout with Fabricio Werdum, as Werdum was the one to initiate the takedown, which ended really badly for him.
Renan Ferreira is 6 foot 8. A reach advantage he has used to devastating effect against the other PFL heavyweights like Ryan Bader and Denis Goltsov.
When range meets knockout power and aggression, you get Renan Ferreira.
Whatever Ngannou's game plan is, it will surely begin with a strong boxing base, and for as good as Renan's previous opponents were, none of them had anything close to Francis' power.
While Ngannou should avoid head hunting, finding his range with boxing will force Renan into a backwards motion and relying on counter punching and leg kicks.
You can feel that it's a reach, but Renan Ferreira has more than a good chance to put himself on the world stage by winning this and he should not be a heavy underdog by anyone's odds.
A novelty fight, and the PFL does deserve some respect for having an opponent like Ferreira and it should be a barn burner, given the novelty of a fight this big being hosted somewhere other than the UFC.

Report: Former Brazil president Jair Bolsonaro takes up residence at ex-UFC champ Jose Aldo’s Florida home
If the last five years or so have made anything abundantly clear, it’s that far-right politicians can find some of their staunchest supporters in the world of mixed martial arts. Whether it’s fighters like Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal stumping for Donald Trump, or Wanderlei Silva and Fabricio Werdum chilling with Jair Bolsonaro, or the whole host of UFC talent that has accepted invitations…

We have a list of fighters signed with the GFL
Tyron Woodley, Fabricio Werdum, Anthony Pettis, Luke Rockhold, Junior Dos Santos, Alexander Gustafsson, Wanderlei Silva, Thiago Santos, Andrei Arlovski, Ilir Latifi, Jeremy Stephens, Alan Belcher, Palhares, Lance Palmer, etc.
Some names I thought we’d never see again. Curious how many of these folks are actually signed to fight or are doing endorsement deals or something. Not sold on this being a thing but we’ll see I guess.

Global Fight League Promotional League
Just found out about the GFL. It’s a team based MMA promotion that claims it’s revenue split will be 50/50 with the fighters. They plan to debut in 2025 with teams in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Texas. The idea is that owners buy into the league like it was the NBA or NFL. Their website says some dude names Harrison Rogers put up $10 million for his Phoenix based team. So it’s basically the IFL for long times MMA fans. Or Chuck Norris’ World Combat League. So yeah.
Only heard about this because they signed Tanner Boser and that got posted to r/mma.
