guys like mike brown and wagney fabiano should never be on undercards
screw the whole wec lightweight division i dont care about that 2nd rate division over the bantamweights and featherweights
We have a saying back home that if your coming on, COME ON!!!!
Brown being on the undercard is good for Brown
He’s fighting a (relative) nobody. If he wins, he was supposed to (and comes back to the main card for an opponent that wouldn’t be an embarrassment to lose to), but if he loses again and people see it, it’s hard for him to recover. They did the same thing to (read: for) Fitch when he fought Mike Pierce.

fitch fought pierce on a main card though
and as entertaining as guys like donald cerrone and jamie varner can be, mike browns a top 5 featherweight and deserves to be on the main card over them
the top guys fights should be shown no matter what, in no other weight division besides 135 and 145 would anything like this happen

Jon Fitch was put on the preliminary card against Akihiro Gono
At UFC 94 after his loss to GSP.
Nick Garcia is the Brian Russell of MLS but 10 times worse.

The Mike Pierce thing was on short notice
I think he was supposed to fight Alves.

I MUST GO TO THIS CARD
Never been to a Zuffa event and it’s about a seventy minute drive away.

I have a feeling this might be the last WEC event
hope I’m wrong
if it meant a merger id be thrilled
the top 135 and 145 guys deserve to get the higher class treatment and UFC brand behind them the way the higher weight classes do
what i want though is for all the WEC slots on vs to remain as UFC events and not disapear entirely, this wont happen though until that spike contract that limits the amount of UFC shows shown on other cable networks is gone until then expect to see the WEC keep on truckin as is

I meant a merger
I believe mmalogic said(depending on whether or not you believe what he says) they are working on that spike contract as we speak.
Empty
They pretty much emptied the closet on this one, Other then Faber & Henderson, they put the majority of their bog name fighters on this card. So the possibility of this being the last seems plausable

I'd buy this for $30-35
so long as the horodecki/radcliff and brown fight got on, which would be likely given the guys on the main card who can finish.
Wow
If Faber were on this card instead of 50 this is another PPV caliber card.
