The other title fight on the card will be for the featherweight title as Georgi Karakhanyan defends the title for the first time against Rick Glenn and the referee for that fight will be Steve Mazzagatti. The judges for this title fight will be Lester Griffin, Junichiro Kamijo, and Urso. The remaining officials for the other fights at World Series of Fighting 10 will be announced on Saturday prior to the event.
