In addition to Williams-Heun, four other preliminary contests were revealed: Abubakar Nurmagomedov vs. Danny Davis Jr. at welterweight; Hakeem Dawodu vs. Marat Magomedov at featherweight; Andreas Spang vs. Shamil Gamzatov at light heavyweight and Gil Guardado vs. Giga Chikadze at lightweight. WSOF takes place at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas and is headlined by a 145-pound title tilt between Lance Palmer and Marcos Alexandre Campos de Almeida.

Williams, 31, is a 7-2 with one no contest as a professional, with five of his triumphs coming inside the distance. He is 3-1 thus far in 2015, including a third-round submission of Jared Hatch in his most recent outing on Nov. 14.

Based out of American Top Team, Heun is coming off a victory against Davin Clark at WSOF 22 on Aug. 1. Heun owns an 8-4 career mark, with six wins via knockout, technical knockout or submission.
