Hey everyone! The WEC event last night was absolutely amazing. The fights were top notch and the talent is there. Urijah Faber and Brock Larson are awesome and I think the lightweights and featherweights are some of the worlds elite. One thing I noticed about WEC fighters is the level of conditioning is so much higher then some in Pride and UFC and especially Bodog. Mark Hominik, even though he lost, looked to be in incredible condition or atleast better then when he was "running track" at the UFC against Gurgel. Alex Karalexis dropped to 155 and did well. I can see the WEC being a good home for some of TUF guys who did well but ended up not winning (ie Stephan Bonnar, Chris Leben, 2-3 guys from this season and Bobby Southworth.
I would love to see more people like Brock Larson and Urijah Faber who obviously care as much about conditioning as they do about technique. Even the guy Faber beat was incredible.
