Spicuzza is 3-1 during his WSOF tenure, including a split-decision triumph over Benny Madrid in his most recent outing at WSOF 19. The Drysdale Jiu-Jitsu representative is 6-2 as a professional overall. Mamedov, meanwhile, has been victorious in 11 of 12 appearances. He made his WSOF debut on April 10, earning a technical knockout victory over Leon Davis 4:42 into the opening frame.
