World Series of Fighting has revealed the preliminary match-ups for it’s upcoming event.

On Friday, the promotion announced an eight-fight preliminary card for WSOF 35 headlined by featherweights Alexandre Almeida and Steven Siler. The Brazilian Almeida lost his WSOF featherweight title in his last bout, losing a majority decision to Lance Palmer back in July. Almeida is 18-6 as a professional fighter. Meanwhile, Siler, a former UFC fighter, is also coming off a loss, dropping a split decision to Andre Harrison last March at Titan FC 37. The 30-year-old fighter is 28-15 in his MMA career and 5-2 since leaving the UFC back in 2014.
