While the rest of the sports world cries into its Cheerios after watching the prospect of a Kobe Bryant vs. LeBron James NBA Finals flame out like Eminem, the mixed martial arts fan has yet another meaty World Extreme Cagefighting card to keep his or her bowl tear-free. Slated for this Sunday at the Arco Arena in Sacramento, Calif., it features the fight that’s on the mind of every fan.
A rematch between WEC featherweight champion Mike Thomas Brown and the man he built his name upon, Urijah Faber, will help define the future of the promotion’s burgeoning featherweight class. The return of featherweight super-prospect Jose Aldo backs up the main event, along with the latest appearance of lightweight sadomasochist Donald Cerrone and perhaps the last stand of one-time UFC lightweight champion Jens Pulver.
Get your situation lined up for this weekend and settle in for the latest round of semi-reliable unprofessional prognostication. Remember, I get 10 percent of your winnings and take no responsibility for the losses. Not my fault that probability has a grudge against me.
