    I don’t know, I think card looks pretty decent. Looks even better when it’s free.

  • Lord Mark says:

    I feel bad for Pulver. He’s one of my fav. fighters but has seen some real tuff comp lately and just can not pull off a win. They should have thown him a bone here and gave him a fight to build his confidence back up with before the rematch.

    re: “Not the greatest card”

    Free MMA, don’t complain too much. I think I agree with your picks Canada.

    true justin my bad i forgot they r free, there is more good fights on there than i thought! i just need 2 research wec fighters better!! i just got a computer & net 1week ago now i will know more about other orgs fighters! i know all UFC roster though & where most train. hey justin do u train???

    • Justin says:

      No I don’t train, but I’m thinking about it. I used to wrestle in grades 7-9.

        Really Faber koing Pulver round one? Might I ask why u believe this to happen?? CuZ Faber will be pissed because he embarassed himself? May I remind you that Pulver to every shot Urijah gave him (even the illegal ones) for 25 minutes, also I think that Jens always has a punchers chance, what if Jens ko’s Urijah then we can all say how Faber is washed up and needs to retire because he lost twice in a row.. I think it will be another war between these two… Faber by SD

        Coooowwwwwwwbbbbbboooyyy, is undefeated and has a chin, Varner calls time out to find his mouth piece, even tho Cerrone is a muay thai practitioner he also has a really solid ground game and I can see him winning by triangle choke.. I think its a pretty good card the WEC doesn’t dissapoint with their live shows
