When Stann wins his first defense I’d love to see him fight Munoz, but that’s sacrificing one of their 2 LHW stars. Either Stann loses all momentum they’ve been building or Munoz can’t be built to the star he is.

I wonder if Filho is ready for this bout…?
I guess not, think he will gas in the first round.
Sonnen by tko 2nd round

Don’t you mean WEC
Anyways this will be an awsome card to see live.

The thing about the WEC is that it is the minor leagues of the UFC except for the featherweight division. They do put on good fights, but any company can put on good fights. I think the WEC should just merge with the UFC. They can do shows on VS under the UFC banner.

I get it guys… need to double check after I copy/paste fight card formatting.

Thanks

This is a great card. I really hope that WEC isn’t folded into UFC, and I really hope WEC stays away from ppv’s. If that happens, I’ll have to start choosing between UFC and WEC events, and that would stink.

This is a great card, can’t wait to see it, besides Faber, I’m also excited to see Rosholt and Hendricks in action, those are a couple of great prospects.
