We sponsored Bowles in a previous fight and we think he’s a top contender, but still Torres one of the best fighters in the world P4P. As a fan, I can hardly wait to see this fight… best of luck to both of them!

the last wec was so exciting..i forget how the smaller weight division offers so much more speed and agility..the standing subs are wicked..i will have to research most of the fighters to catch up..
that flying knee to cubs face was out of hand..such a quick fight!!

I like Benavidez and can’t wait to see his fight. He is a future champion.
