WEC tickets at AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas, for 'Cerrone vs. Henderson' on Oct. 10 on sale soon

Tickets for the upcoming World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) show at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas on Oct. 10, are scheduled to go on sale to the general public on Friday, Sept. 4 at 10 a.m. CT.

WEC Newsletter subscribers can pick up their presale tickets a day early, starting Thursday, Sept. 3 at 10 a.m. CT. To take advantage of presale tickets, users must register for the WEC newsletter through WEC.tv.

"Cerrone vs. Henderson" was originally booked for the Covelli Center in Youngstown, Ohio, on Sept. 2. Four former world champion fighters (Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell, Frank Mir, Jens "Little Evil" Pulver, and Urijah "The California Kid" Faber) were expected to be on hand for the festivities during fight week to promote the promotion’s first-ever trip to the "Buckeye State."

However, all that fell through because of what the promotion referred to as a "minor injury" to main event fighter, Ben "Smooth" Henderson, less than two weeks out from the original fight night.

With Henderson and Greg Jackson pupil Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone set to square off for the WEC interim lightweight title (current champion Jamie Varner is on the sidelines with a hand injury), the promotion certainly didn’t want to scrap the fight all together, opting instead to postpone the event until Oct. 10.

Perhaps there were problems re-booking the Covelli Center, or maybe there was another reason, but either way, the show has been relocated to San Antonio.

In addition to the showdown between Cerrone and Henderson, former lightweight number one contender Rich "Cleat" Crunkilton — who will make his first appearance in the WEC cage in more than a year and a half because of various injuries — will take on undefeated Midwest prospect Dave Jansen.

WEC 43 tickets can also be purchased through StubHub.com (Note: StubHub often has seats available even if the event is "sold out"). The WEC 43 main card will air live on Versus at 9 p.m. ET/ 6 p.m. PT on fight night.

I agree Andrew. WEC is a great organization…its just too bad that I’ve got Directv and can’t watch atleast for awhile.TKO is right, I think Cowboy is coming out guns blazing like always.
