WEC Bantamweight contender Brian Bowles
The WEC rebounded from a lackluster show on November 5th with a solid effort. Only four fights were shown in the allotted time which was somewhat of a disappointment. Miguel Torres once again looked impressive in defeating challenger Manny Tapia to retain his bantamweight title. In a battle of fellow bantamweight contenders, Brian Bowles and Will Ribeiro fought the best fight of the night that was televised, with Bowles finally sinking in a deep guillotine for the victory. Wagnney Fabiano also notched another solid win in a very technical grappling affair that saw minimal action on the feet.
