So I will try to make this Weekend Preview a weekly thing. I will give everyone a sporting event, movie, TV show, or something else I'm looking forward to during the weekend.
This weekend, the winner is WEC 35. World Extreme Cagefighting, a Zuffa (UFC's parent company) owned fight promotion, will be holding an event Sunday, August 3rd at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. Three of the WEC champions will be defending their titles, so its definitely an event worth watching.
I attended the last WEC event at Arco Arena in Sacramento and got to watch hometown fighter (and UC Davis wrestling alum) Urijah Faber defend his Featherweight title against Jenz Pulver. The event was awesome and both the Faber/Pulver fight & the Torres/Maeda are in the discussion for fight of the year.
The schedule of fights is:
Main Card Bouts:
-Carlos Condit (#9 Welterweight in the World)* vs. Hiromitsu Miura (for WEC Welterweight Title)
-Jamie Varner vs. Marcus Hicks (for WEC Lightweight Title)
-Brian Stann vs. Steve Cantwell (for WEC Light Heavyweight Title)
-Brian Bowles vs. Damacio Page
-Micah Miller vs. Josh Grispi
Preliminary Bouts:
-Brock Larson vs. Carlo Prater
-Blas Avena Vs. Dave Terrel
-Kenji Osawa vs. Scott Jorgensen
-Greg McIntyre vs. Mike Budnik
-Todd Moore vs. Shane Roller
The main card bouts will air live & free on Versus at 6PM......TUNE IN AND CHECK IT OUT
