Rousimar Palhares and Jon Fitch Rousimar Palhares (17-6) added another victim to his growing list of submission wins when he finished Jon Fitch (26-7-1) with a first-round knee bar in the WSOF 16 headliner at McClellan Conference Center in Sacramento, Calif. “Toquinho” defended his WSOF welterweight title for the first time with a leg lock submission of Fitch, who tapped out in a fight for just the third time in his professional career. After roughly a minute of time spent on the feet, the action shifted to the ground. To the surprise of no one, Palhares immediately attacked Fitch’s leg and began working toward his trademark heel hook. Fitch briefly defended the submission, but once Palhares adjusted the knee bar, the former UFC title challenger frantically tapped out to give the Brazilian his sixth victory in his past eight bouts
