WEC impressive in national TV debut
World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) made a strong debut in its first national TV show on Versus (formerly the Outdoor Life Network). The formerly independent WEC is now owned by UFC, and it specializes in the lighter weight classes.
The top star in WEC is featherweight champion Urijah Faber. In a battle of 144-pounders, Faber improved his record to 19-1 with a win over Chance Farrar. Faver forced a tap-out with a rear naked choke in 3:19.
Carlos Condit, the welterweight (170) champion, was unable to compete on Versus due to an injury. His would-be opponent, Brock Larson, pounded Kevin Knabjian to improve his record to 21-1.
In other results, Brian Stann beat Craig Zellner by TKO; Alex Karalexis beat Josh Smith by unanimous decision; Rani Yahya beat Mark Hominick with the rear naked choke; and Josh Alessio beat Alex Serduykov with the guillotine choke.
WEC will air again on Versus tonight with a show called WrekCage from 8-10 Eastern. You can learn everything about WEC at www.wec.tv.
