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.

Another awesome WEC event. I've pretty much come to expect that from this organization though and they deliver again and again. What an awesome night. I think Torres vs. Maeda was FOTN but Faber vs. Pulver was really good too. Plus we got to see Munoz go Fedor-style as icing on the cake. Time to catch some ZZZZZzzzzzzzzs. Night all!

2. Wrestling, I'm gonna give this one to Faber, hands down. Faber is a well decorated NCAA class wrestler, who coached the UC Davis wrestling team. He's got powerful, and explosive takedowns, and a superior sprawl/takedown defense(not that Pulver is gonna attempt a takedown anyway).
3. Jiu Jitsu, gotta go with Faber on this one too...he's got great submission skills and he's got another factor that gives him an advantage in the ground game: Brains. He's constantly learning everyday in training and every second in a fight. He has the arsenal to submit anyone at anytime...he's an adaptive fighter, and that's what any champion needs to be...adaptive; constantly looking for the finish, whether by armbar, triangle, rearnaked, anaconda, d'arce, anklelock, etc, he's consistantly looking for the finish.
Faber, sorry Jens, but he's the champ for a reason.

he's only 4 years older. Pulver is 33 and Faber is 29 |

Wec 34 Faber Vs. Pulver
Really Sick Fight!!!!!! I Saw Pulver Winning The First Round Then Faber Started Picking Him Apart Until Jens's Face Was A Brutal Mess (huge Mouse On His Left Side Of The Face), But Overall It Was Way More That What I Expected.
