If you don’t have Versus TV and are into combat sports you should really think about getting it. They carry World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC), which I find to be really entertaining and fun to watch. I would have to say that their fighters and fights are just as good as UFC or Pride FC. In fact they have some of the UFC’s fighters, fighters like Joe “Diesel” Riggs and Jens Pulver.

But the main thing that makes WEC different than UFC or Pride FC is their dedication to having great fighters in the lighter weight categories, like bantam weight and feather weight.

This is a quote from their website http://www.wec.tv/

WHAT DISTINGUISHES WEC FROM ITS COMPETITORS?
The WEC has the best MMA competitors in the world. With a strong focus on lighter weights such as, featherweight, bantamweight, and lightweight the WEC attracts the best talent from all over the globe. The WEC brings together the most disciplined martial arts experts from around the world to compete within the steel cage. WEC fighters come from the USA, Canada, Brazil, Japan, Russia, Mexico, and England, etc. All WEC fighters have previous combat sports experience and many are world or Olympic champions. Almost all WEC fighters have studied martial arts as a lifelong vocation and many are college educated. In addition to their WEC careers, many of these men are business owners. It is the success, discipline and focus of the WEC fighter that makes him different from just about any other competitor in or of mixed martial arts.

If you have Versus, WEC is pretty easy to catch, they rerun the hell out of the fights, plus on Christmas day they’re doing a marathon of four events back to back, so set your Tivos.
