WEC World Extreme Cagefighting is an American mixed martial arts promotion. It is the sister promotion to the UFC, both owned and produced by ZUFFA, with a focus on lighter weight classes and talent building for the UFC. As with its older and much larger sibling, the WEC uses the same rules as the UFC, but it holds its fights in a smaller octagonal cage.

That looks amazing. We'll see what Lil' Evil can do at 145 now against a very decent opponent in Cub Swanson. Urijah Faber is always great to watch too.

I got Curran on this fight willing to bet all my points (if there is a vbet)that is if it doesn't go to decision.

the day before my birthday... and on the 15th i get to go to the HDNet Fights... screw november i'm ready for next month.

I wanna see Little Evil throw another soccer kick to someone's face, but I don't see that happening to Cub Swanson. Curran vs. Faber is interesting... I can't see Curran submitting Faber, but I'm sure he could eek out a decision with a little GnP... good luck getting Urijah to the ground though. I just see Urijah as having a lot more tools to win this fight. I wonder who they bring in for Filho.

Wow, can't wait to see these great fights. I am really looking forward to FILHO and LIL EVIL fights. WEC is growing good, I have been a fan for a long time. They have always needed some better fighters and they are really getting some good ones!

When they said "the return of a true mixed martial arts legend" I thought they somehow got Frank on this card too. That would have been amazing. Even as it stands, this card is pretty awesome.

Here's the first thing I thought when I saw this article:

Why can't the UFC do something like that?

Honestly, I think this is a great event. I'd like see WEC really bring in someone awesome to fight Filho, like a Phil Baroni or Frank Shamrock, but I have a feeling that won't happen. Either way, it will be nice to see Paulo fight again.

I'm looking forward to seeing Jens fight again. I've bet some points on him, but Swanson could make the fight interesting.

I don't really think Faber is all that he's cracked up to be, given the level of competition, but I think he should tear through Jeff Curran, and it should be an exciting fight, even if it's not a competitive one.

As for Rhino, I don't know that much about the guy except that he hits like a ton of bricks. I really don't think his record is the kind a champion should have, but the paper isn't everything, and I'll be excited to see if he can live up to the hype and put together a fireworks display.

Should be a good event.
