WEC is dead, long live the “real” WEC. Lots of weird fights on this card that are strangely appealing in a delightfully sleezy way. I mean, Jamie Jara and Jimmy Ambriz are on the card. Right there you know it is gonna be “a thing”.

Really cool card actually! Tim McKenzie, Jorge Oliveira, Phil Collins….this IS the old WEC, lol.

Everything about this is the old WEC. Its the same venue, lots of the same fighters, hell I think they still use the same entrance ramp. You should look at the last TPF show’s lineup too – same sort of deal. It was even headlined by Doug Marshall and Rob McCullough fights.

If Micah Miller wins do you think the UFC calls him up? I also remember reading that Allesio got a call from the UFC but was under contract and couldn’t take the fight.

I have to assume Miller will be in the UFC sooner than later, unless he likes the freedom to fight over in Japan and what not (doubtful).

He’s only lost to some very good competition (Grispi, Omigawa, Maeda and Swanson), and he’s still young as hell.

What an interesting choice of picture use for James Irvin…

that's the "I'm drunk, taking a piss and it feels great" face

"We have all had to watch Brock Lesnar fart around. That guy is an embarrassment. God damn, you get to hand pick his opponents for him for a while then someone who is a half way decent athlete comes along and hits him once and he pisses his pants and runs. If he wasn't in a cage he would still be running."
