…I just think Torres is too much, standing up, for Maeda….. That’s what I meant to say lol

Not that there was necessarily a shortage of striking in the Maeda fight, I just think Torres is too much on the ground for Maeda, like I said Maeda was playing a lot of defense

Before a Torres Tapia fight??? Yeeea right. Don’t get me wrong the Maeda fight was unreal but I feel like Maeda was on defense too much, which is why he lost lol. I think Miguel v Manny Tapia is a wayy better style matchup, more striking

I would rather see a Torres Maeda rematch.

I honestly think Tapia and Torres could be a fight of the year candidate.

Thank god. Was there any real point to having MW and LHW around in the WEC? Not to take anything away from Stann or Cantwell, but COMBINED they’ve got a record of 12-1, which is just enough (in my mind) to get them a shot at a UFC contender, let alone a title. The WEC has enough talent in it’s lighter classes that they don’t need to bother putting emphasis on a nobody champ who is getting tested by some other nobody.. doing that just cheapens the belt.

Bart Palasweski vs Alex Karalexis is also supposed to be happening on this card. It is also tentative that Jeff Curran will be fighting as well that night. At least this is the word going around the gym at Team Curran.

I agree we need to see some lighter weight classes. There are some bad ass fighters at 125.
Cant wait to see Stann vs Cantwell 3 in the UFC
