Quick updates on Mayhem Miller and Sokoudjou

August 28, 2007 by Sam Caplan  

Last night UFCjunkie.com was kind enough to allow me to participate in a chat with Dan Henderson. Henderson fielded a ton of questions and I was able to incorporate some of my own.

I’ve been asked a lot of people about Jason “Mayhem” Miller and when he’ll be fighting next for the WEC. A few e-mails I received asked me if he was a free agent. According to Henderson, who trains with Miller on a regular basis at Team Quest in Temecula, Miller has one fight left on his WEC contract. The WEC doesn’t plan on running an event right now in October so the next time we might get to see him fight could be in November or December.

A lot of people asked about Sokoudjou. His contract with K-1 is not finalized yet but Henderson reiterated that Hero’s is where he expects him to end up fighting.

    I had heard they were planning on having WEC 32 in October and WEC 33 in November with Cub Swanson and Jens Pulver on that card and a light heavyweight title bout on the october fight card.

    Kris:

    The last time I spoke to the WEC, there were no plans for an October show. Plans can always change, but as of now, no October show is on the books.

    I’m not even sure Pulver would be ready by October.
