The WEC is ready for network TV...sorry Versus
| I've said it before and I'll say it again. From a fan's perspective, the WEC is the best fighting organization on the planet. They have the most exciting and most consistent cards in combat sports (UFC, HBO and Showtime included). Match making A Overall Talent B+ Production B+ Star appeal A Consistency A Action A Live fans D Value A+ Head to head, if I had to choose between a free (no additional cost to cable fee) WEC card or most UFC ppv's (I'd pay damn near anything for GSP vs. Penn)...it's a no brainer. The WEC provides so much value, it is hard to believe that the owners will continue to not charge a ppv fee for much longer. Greed has a way of spoiling most things. Even something as near perfect as the WEC. * I am aware that UFC/Zuffa owns the WEC |

I totally agree doc. Almost every WEC-event this last year has been nothing but incredible. And i think the scrapping of higher weightclasses is going to bring an even brighter future for the WEC.
But apprently Zuffa is looking into signing Kid Yamamoto for a Faber vs Kid-superfight. I don't see that beeing for just raising the Versus-ratings. WEC on ppv is not far ahead i'm afraid.
