WEC 36 (November, 2008)

WEC 36 – November 5

145 lbs. Title – Urijah Faber [1] vs. Mike Brown [8]

Result: Huge upset. Faber’s agressiveness is usually what wins him his fights but this time it cost him. He went for a swinging elbow but Mike Brown stepped to the side and leveled him with a right hand. He pounded away on Faber until the referee stopped it. This was a matter of living by the sword and dying by it. Faber got caught. Mike Brown is the real deal but I’m sure there will be a rematch down the road. For now, Mike Brown is top dog. Brown rises to 1. Faber drops to 2.

185 lbs. - Paulo Filho [2] vs. Chael Sonnen [22]

Result: Filho failed to make weight and failed miserably to inflict damage on Chael Sonnen. Paulo did his best Kalib Starnes impression in losing a unanimous decision. I’m not sure how he’s going to bounce back from this loss. Horrible performance. After some light leg kicks to his butt-scooting opponent in the first round, Sonnen jabbed away the last 2 rounds. Sonnen rises to 18. Filho drops to 19.

145 lbs. – Jens Pulver [3] vs. Leonard Garcia [11]

Result: Garcia blew away Pulver in the 1st round with stikes. Leonard stepped into the pocket like he said he would and beat Jens in the fire-fight. Hand speed appeared to be the determining factor here. Garcia now eyes Mike Brown for the title. Two of the best camps in the world will be represented. American Top Team for Mike Brown and Greg Jackson’s Gym for Leonard Garcia. It should be a great fight. Garcia rises to 3. Jens drops to 9.

185 lbs. – Nissen Osterneck [80] vs. Jake Rosholt

Result: Rosholt won this fight on pure guts. His standup looked very raw and Nissen tagged him a bunch of times. Jake staid in there, showing a solid chin and lots of heart. After Nissen tried a careless spinning back-fist, Jake got the takedown and pounded him out for the 2nd round TKO. Jake has the heart of a champion but he must improve his standup ASAP. Jake debuts at 79. Nissen drops to 81.

135 lbs. – Yoshiro Maeda [3] vs. Rani Yahya [14] 

Result: Yahya winner by 1st round submission (Guillotine choke). Yahya rises to 10. Maeda drops to 11.

155 lbs. – Rob McCullough [55] vs. Donald Cerrone [73]

Result: Cerrone winner by unanimous decision. Cerrone rises to 51. McCullough drops to 66.

145 lbs. – Jose Aldo [20] vs. Jonathan Brookins

Result: Aldo winner by 3rd round TKO. Aldo stays at 20.

Sengoku 6 (November, 2008)

Sengoku 6 – November 1

205 lbs. Rogerio Nogueira [13] vs. Moise Rimbon

Result: Rogerio winner by Unanimous Decision over Rimbon. Rogerio rises to 12.

205 lbs. – Muhammed Lawal [NR] vs. Fabio Silva

Result: Lawal winner by 1st round TKO. Lawal debuts at 37.

185 lbs. – Jorge Santiago [24] vs. Siyar Bahadurzada

Result: Santiago winner by 1st round Submission (Heel Hook). Santiago rises to 21.

185 lbs. – Yuki Sasaki [58] vs. Kazuhiro Nakamura [79]

Result: Nakamura winner by Unanimous Decision. Nakamura rises to 56. Sasaki drops to 59.

Result: Golyaev winner by Split Decision. Golyaev debuts at 17. Gomi drops to 18.

155 lbs. – Eiji Mitsuoka [31] vs. Satoru Kitaoka

Result: Kitaoaka winner by 1st round Submission (Heel Hook). Kitaoka debuts at 31. Mitsuoka drops to 35.

155 lbs. – Mizuto Hirota [52] vs. Kazunori Yokota

Result: Yokota winner by Unanimous Decision. Yokota debuts at 51. Hirota drops to 53.

155 lbs. Title – Satoru Kitaoka [31] vs. Kazunori Yokota [51]

Result: Kitaoka winner by Unanimous Decision. Kitaoka rises to 30. Yokota stays at 51.

155 lbs. – Jorge Masvidal [39] vs. Seung Hwan Bang [73]
