The World Series of Fighting has announced two new bouts for WSOF 3 on June 14th in Las Vegas as Chris Gruetzemacher meets Jerrod Sanders and Carson Beebe faces Joe Murphy.
Both fights will take place on the preliminary card which will come from The Joint at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
Gruetzemacher (11-1) is a featherweight out of the MMA Lab in Arizona and is currently on a ten fight winning streak. His last seven victories have come by stoppage with six of those wins coming by TKO/KO.
Sanders (11-1) has also been on a winning streak as he has won nine in a row and his last three wins have come in the first round. Five of his eleven wins are by submission with two of those wins coming in his last three fights.
Beebe (13-2) is the younger brother of former WEC champion Chase Beebe and had won seven straight before losing to Rolando Velasco at Tachi Palace Fights 15 in November of last year. His last two wins have come by submission and has five career wins by submission.
Murphy (6-0) is a submission specialist as five of his six wins have come by submission and three of those have come in the first round. He recently defeated Tyler Weathers by armbar submission in April and it was his third career win by armbar.
“We are excited to add another pair of matchups to our preliminary card that will showcase a collection of the sport’s brightest up and coming athletes and future champions,” said World Series of Fighting President and six-time world kickboxing champion Ray Sefo.
“Since we launched our promotion last year, World Series of Fighting has made a commitment to building a roster of its own stars, so fighting as many potential future stars at our live events is critical in order to ensure that these athletes gain the necessary competitive experience to take their careers to the next level.”
