Coming from WEC's official Twitter page.

A bantamweight match-up between two former title challengers has been announced by WEC's official Twitter. Jiu jitsu ace, Rani Yahya, will take on Japanese slugger, Takeya Mizugaki, presumably on the undercard of WEC's first trip to pay per view. Both fighters are coming off losses at WEC 45 to Joseph Benavidez and Scott Jorgensen respectively but both are on the tail end of the top 10 in the 135 pd. division, a win here would certainly push either up to title contention.

Seriously dude

Even though he lost to Scotty… who the fuck else in MMA will stand in the pocket and throw body shot combos like Takeya does? He has a ton of upside IMO

Frank Mir already has Mizugaki down 50-6 on his scorecard

it's their first PPV

they will deal with a few bad cards after this as long as this PPV does good….which I don’t think it will TBH.

Sweet I love watching Yahya fight, hopefully he learned his lesson about taking fights to the ground and not standing and striking after getting knocked out.
