MMA Junkie is reporting that Jens Pulver (22-12-1, 1-4 WEC) vs. Javier Vazquez (13-4, 0-2 WEC) is in the works for WEC: 47 Bowles vs. Cruz.
The WEC had previously announced that Pulver would be apart of their Ohio debut set for March 6th but the WEC had yet to name an opponent.
Javier Vasquez is currently riding a two fight losing streak, which makes him the perfect opponent for Pulver who is in the mists of a horrendous losing streak. Despite Pulver's recent struggles (he is 1-6 in his past seven fights) Jens is still one of the biggest draws the WEC has, in part due to his status as an MMA legend and pioneer in addition to his time spent as a TUF coach on season five of The Ultimate Fighter.
Pulver vs. Vazquez joins the main event bantamweight title fight between Brian Bowles and Dominick Cruz as well as the potential number one contender fight between Miguel Torres and Joseph Benavidez.
