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.

Jens Pulver 60,000 and Swanson 5,000? I hate it when you see a big difference in the payouts between two people who are fighting each other

I hate to see that aswell but i think 40,000 isnt enough for Faber as he is the poster boy for the WEC.

For sure. Especially the most important bout of the night. Regardless of how popular Swanson isn't he should get more for being in the headliner. At least 10-15K IMO. But what can ya' do
