Looking forward to Bowles fighting TOrres. Bowles has looked good in the WEC already. Curious to see how long he can hang with Miguel

Yeah me too. Im a big fan of Brian Bowls’. I wish they would have had him wait a fight or two first though. Im not sure he’s ready for Miguel Angel just yet, but either way it should be interesting to see hoqw it pans out.

This will be my first live WEC event. I was hoping Faber would be on the card since at one time he was rumored to be, but I’m still excited!
