In the main event, Tim "The Wrecking Machine" McKenzie steps out of the booth and in to the cage the face "The Raw Deal" Justin Baesman. Baesman, the current WFC Welterweight Champion, moves up to middleweight to try and become the first to hold WFC titles in two weight classes. He faces UFC veteran McKenzie, who is skilled on the feet as well as the ground winning 8 of his fights by KO and 5 by submission. Both men will fight it out and see who reigns as the inaugural middleweight champion.
In the co-main event of the evening. WFC Light Heavyweight Champion Anthony "A-Train" Ruiz puts his belt on the line against Knockout artist Scott "Hands of Steel" Smith. Ruiz, coming off a TKO victory over Scott Rosa looks to defend his title once again against power puncher Smith. Smith, known for his KO victories in the UFC against Pete Sell, and his impressive comeback KO victories in Strikeforce against Cung Le and Benji Radach, looks to once again have his hand raised in the cage. Ruiz has never been knocked out in more than 40 fights, but if there's anybody that can do it, Smith would be the man. We will see it all unfold on September 8th.
We also look to crown the inaugural Heavyweight Champion as Josh "The Juggernaut" Appelt takes on Freddie "Bigg" Acquitania. Both men had impressive TKO stoppage wins in June in the first round of the WFC Heavyweight tournament. They each look to replicate that performance and have the belt put around their waist in the cage in Yuba City.
