Official "World Extreme Cagefighting" Discussion

Ok so to start off gotta say WEC didn't impress me all that much UNTIL last night when I was watching it before Tapout came on and I seen a match that impressed the shit out of me. It was Jens Pulver vs. Urijah Faber. Now you have Jens who is EASILY a legend of his weight class vs'ing some guy I had no idea about.

Ok so I'm expecting Jens to cream the guy as most of the guys I had seen on WEC so far were nothing. But then all I end up seeing is this kid Faber basically kick the crap out of Jens not even allowing him to set in a good offense. So needless to say after that fight I'm going to start tuning in more. But yea now I'm hooked and can't wait for Urijah Faber vs. Mike Brown next week. Match is going to be impressive as hell.

For those who don't know WEC is on VS Wednesday nights before Tapout(At leas that's when I always catch it). So yea everyone should check out that show.

I have been a fan of Faber for awhile. Jens vs. Faber was last June I think, I saw it and it was one hell of a fight. It really was the first time people paid attention to WEC. Faber is their top guy despite weight class. He is one crazy ass fighter.

Yea I definitely give Faber credit for the way he punked Jens out. I mean Jens is a beast in the ring and usually kicks ass and if not dominating usually back and forth fight. But this fight just seemed to be all Faber. But yea Faber is definitely a beast.

Yea so I just saw today on WEC.tv that Faber's title defense is postponed until November. That sucks, now the WED interest is going downhill that Faber isn't fighting anytime soon. :*(

Man I can't wait to see this PPV already. With all the build up it's got behind it, when it does happen I have a feeling it's going to be amazing.

 

[xtremebadass]

It's still in November right J-Dawg? With all the UFC and EXC crap going on I forgot all about it.

 

[J]

As far as I know. I haven't forgot though. This fights been in the back of my mind for a while. I know it's going to be an amazing fight. That's why I can't wait for it to happen already.

 

[xtremebadass]

Yea dude I just read that it was postponed for Hurricane threats. It's still Nov. 5th Faber vs. Brown. It will also be Jens Pulver vs. Leonard Garcia. That should be good.

Awesome card. Brown vs. Faber is going to be amazing as we have been saying. Also having Pulver on the card is only going to help make the fight card all that much better cause as we know Pulver can put on a good fight.

 

[xtremebadass]

Yea J-Dawg, I am not too sure about the rest of the card though. They are only broadcasting about 3-4 fights, and I only care to see two of them. It better wrap up before the Ultimate Fighter.
