WSOF 21's Smealinho Rama talks Blagoi Ivanov fight, knockout loss to Anthony Hamilton, TUF aversion and more

"The Prince" of WSOF's Heavyweight division will make his first title defense in Edmonton, Canada, tomorrow night (June 5, 2015) against a former hot Bellator prospect. And we get the full scoop before showtime.

Smealinho Rama's road to the top of the Heavyweight division in World Series of Fighting (WSOF) wasn't easy.

In fact, his journey was nearly derailed by a "Freight Train," Anthony Hamilton, at MFC 38, thank to a crushing head kick loss 12 seconds into round two. To date, it remains his only loss as a professional, while Hamilton used that win to propel himself into a UFC career.
