A1 has recently announced the line-up for their A1 WCC show on November 20th.

There are some big names scheduled to compete, including Yohan Lidon, Michael Piscitello, and Dylan Salvador. Notably absent is Fabio Pinca, who was originally scheduled to compete. 

In the main event, Yohan Lidon is looking to rebound from a loss to Aegpracha against Corrando Zanchi. Zanchi has gone the distance against guys like Kaoponlek and Alessandro Campagna, so he has enough experience to make the bout interesting.

Also on the card, Michael Piscitello takes on Yazid Boussaha. Piscitello is the other widely recognized name at the event, with his most recent win coming over a highly ranked Sudsakorn in September. His opponent, Boussaha, is trying to bounce back from a loss earlier in the year at Explosion Fight Night 5.

The two fights I'm most interested in are Dylan Salvador vs. Romdhane Hafed, and Amine Kacem vs. Lucien Gross. Salvador gained a lot of exposure with his massive upset over Saiyok not long ago, although the hype lost some steam when it was revealed that an injury forced Saiyok out of the fight, not a KO. Salvador will be looking to keep the train going against Hafed and establish himself as a name in the weight class. Kacem is a very promising up-and-comer on the French circuits with wins over Albert Chey and Montier Gaylord. It will be interesting to see how they do, and these fights wll let us know if they can hang with the big names in France.
