World Series of Fighting 22: Palhares vs. Shields was a mixed martial arts event held August 1, 2015 (2015-08-01) in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. This event aired on NBCSN in the U.S and on Fight Network in Canada.

Background

The event went head-to-head with UFC 190 on the same night.[1]

The main event was scheduled to be a fight for the WSOF Welterweight Championship between champion Rousimar Palhares making his second defence of his title against challenger Jake Shields.[2]

The co-main event was scheduled to be a fight for the WSOF Bantamweight Championship between champion Marlon Moraes making his second defence of his title against challenger Sheymon Moraes.[3]

Tyrone Spong was expected to face Mike Kyle at the event. However, Spong pulled out of the bout due to an injury and was replaced by Thiago Silva.[4] In turn, Silva was forced out of the bout after being deemed ineligible to receive a license by the Nevada State Athletic Commission. Short notice replacement Clifford Starks stepped in to face Kyle at the event.[5]
