| Title: | "Pequeno" Nogueira Coming to WEC - http://www.bloodyelbow.com/story/2008/4/1/105750/1914 |
| Description: | Longtime Shooto 143lb champ Alexandre Franca "Pequeno" Nogueira (13-4-2) will be making his WEC debut on June 1. Hell be taking on fellow Brazilian Jose Aldo. That fight will be on the same card as the WEC featherweight championship is defended by Uriah Faber against Jens Pulver. Who ever wins the belt will want to keep an eye on "Pequeno" as I expect hell get a shot at the title soon. Especially since Leonard Garcia is going to be busy fighting the American justice system for the foreseeable future. Heres a nice Pequeno highlight reel:
This is a clear signal that the WEC is becoming the worlds premier organization for the smaller fighters. |
