WEC 50: Fighters On Weight

Faber and Mizugaki are no longer on the card, as Urijah is out with and injury. 

Fighters competing in tomorrow's WEC 50 card were all on weight tonight. Cruz and Benavidez take main stage in tomorrow's event in a rematch of two of the best 135lb fighters in the world. Benavidez looks to avenge his first and only loss to Cruz, while Cruz is set on keeping the belt with him in Arizona.

The two combatants who won the stare-down contest tonight were Anthony "Showtime" Pettis and Shane Roller. These two are almost guaranteed to put on a good show with their exciting styles and well rounded skill sets. Pettis is the hottest 155lb prospect in the division while Roller has a wrestling pedigree that speaks for itself.

WEC 50 airs live Wednesday night on Versus.
