Hi,

As I'm still new to the whole WEC scene, can anyone tell me if this looks like a good card? UFC are hyping it up anyway. Def wanna see the Korean Zombie!

It's on Thursday night.

• Featherweight bout: Chan Sung Jung vs. George Roop[1]

• Bantamweight bout: Miguel Torres vs. Charlie Valencia[1]

• Lightweight bout: Jamie Varner vs. Donald Cerrone[1]

• Featherweight Championship bout: Jose Aldo (c) vs. Manvel Gamburyan[1]

Aldo is class.
Geogre Roop isn't a bad fighter, and can produce at times,
Zombie FTW obv

Where can you watch the WEC fights? Is there any channel that shows them?

Ah Jesus I love when WEC events sneak up on you like this! Can't wait. No.1 MMA promotion in the world!

Unfortunately they dont have a tv deal for WEC this side of the pond:mad:, which is awful for us because they put on some of the best shows and have some amazing fighters.

I think you can buy their events on their website & the UFC website or just look for a stream, you wont be disappointed with the WEC shows.

+1 but it is a shame there is no real build up to most of their events. They should do a countdown show for all their events. The fighters or the promotion do not get enough recognition because their events go unnoticed to alot of the mma community.

Its sad when WEC events are consistently better than UFC events.

HELL YA!!!!

mmaniac

Roop nice my man. First time Zombie been knocked out gotta love a headkick knock out:).

Professey Chin

Hows about that.Its true with zombies that you always aim for the head

TheProdigy

Absolutely levelled! Hate Roop but that was a fabulous headkick

Looked like the Zombie connected with his own knee on the way down also

MVF

Another great event from the WEC it had everything you coud want to see:D

Aldo p4p!!!


It a shame they will be paid so little for puting on amazing performances:mad:

Zero-Cool

Couldn't stay up for this, will download later (hopefully) and give it a look at the weekend. Brilliant comment about always aim for the head!

unknown13

Is this a typical WEC card. If so which are the few fights I should avoid.

TheTMO

Unbelievable fights, very impressed.

unknown13

It won't be long before fans start calling for Aldo -V- the UFC LW champion. Aldo has to face Grispi and / or Hominick and that division is cleaned.

Minstrel27

That was a good evenings entertainment. The crowds at some of these events do annoy me though. Why the hell would they be jeering during the main event. Idiots
