    Re: WEC 43: Cerrone vs. Henderson

    Notes on the event:

    -- Jamie Varner, WEC Lightweight Champion, was supposed to rematch Donald Cerrone at this event, but his hand injury (sustained in their last bout) has not healed. The WEC has decided to allow Cerrone fight for an Interim Championship, the #2 contender being Ben Henderson--his opponent. A title unification bout between the winner of this match and Varner is expected for WEC 45 or 46.

    -- Mark Hominick and Deividas Taurosevicius were scheduled to fight at Affliction: Trilogy before the event was called off and Affliction was dissolved. The WEC has picked up both fighters and put their bout on this card. Hominick is a UFC veteran while Taurosevicius, a Lithuanian fighter, most recently fought in the IFL.

    Are there no heavyweights in this league?

    No. Didn't Zuffa fold their HW, LHW, and MW division?

    Re: WEC 43: Cerrone vs. Henderson (Sep. 2nd)

    Nobody over 155-lbs in the WEC. The UFC took their best fighters heavier than that and added them to the UFC (Steve Cantwell, Brian Stann, Carlos Condit, etc.).

    WEC is planning on adding a flyweight (125-lbs) division as well.

    I hope Fabiano makes it to the main card, 3 main card fights seem weak.

    Lame, I feel bad for all the folks that don't get to go to the live event in Ohio.

    Re: WEC 43: Cerrone vs. Henderson (Oct. 10th)

    I think the WEC should open a super heavyweight division for 265+. That would be awesome all these little guys and one group of HUGE guys.

    The UFC doesn't use the division.

    That would be kind of neat, but how many good super HWs are there? a lot of the guys that fight at that weight at sideshows that fight in japan.

    Manny should fight in WEC. There should be super HW division. Except they would move so slow and 50 seconds in to the first round they would just drag themselves all over the octagon.
