In the prophetic words of Keanu Reeves in ever movie, ever… “Whoa”. Earlier this week, Marlon Moraes announced his plans to leave WSOF and take his talents elsewhere. Moments ago, the two-division WSOF champion David Branch, also said he is also moving on from the promotion.
I just want to inform my fans I am now a free agent, it's time to move on to a different chapter in my life @arielhelwani @bokamotoESPN

This is big news for the UFC, Bellator, and One FC. It is however, a very telling sign of things going South in the World Series of Fighting organization. Coincidentally, as I am typing this, David Branch continues to drop bombshells on his social media accounts. This is from his Instagram:
“People always wonder why you are acting a certain way towards them, but fail to realize what they did to make you act in this manner… I’m a damn vet, I paid my dues in this sport in the biggest promotions in the world. It’s time for the next chapter.”
It certainly looks as if there will be more information to come out from Branch regarding his situation with WSOF. As it sits currently, Branch is looking for a new home and brings a heck of a resume with him.
