...what a fucking douchebag!!!.......I'm sure anyone who was paying attention last night caught this after they announced the judges decision. How about maybe letting Henderson enjoy the W instead of acting like a dipshit.....he said twice to henderson's corner guy...Tell him to call Varner out!!!....and u could cleary see and hear it on camera.

Yup, that guy was a douche, I hated seeing that. I wanted Henderson's cornerman to punch him in the throat....but Henderson's cornerman looked like an agent and it looks like that's what he told Henderson.

Everyone knows, Varner's next 2 fights are going to be Henderson and Cerrone, I just want to know who Cerrone's next fight is going to be against.

As for Reed Harris - "WEC 43: Cerrone vs. Henderson" post-event press conference, WEC officials announced the card drew a total of 5,176 spectators to AT&T Center in San Antonio......that seems small to me. Especially when there are promotions like Shark Fights that can have over 10,000 people at a live outdoor event. Reed better get on his game, especially with the news of WEC starting to put on more shows.

Just in case, here is a report on what mattc25 has already reported:

Henderson-Varner WEC Title Fight Will Be in Early 2010; Arizona Targeted -- MMA FanHouse

Seconds after Henderson had the belt strapped around his waist, WEC general manager Reed Harris could be heard on camera telling Henderson's corner to have him call out Varner for a December matchup.

Cerrone only has 1 fight left on his contract so I doubt he will fight Varner as I see him getting moved to the UFC.

Also 5176 spectators is still a lot. Considering that the Ultimate Fighter 9 finale only had 2217 and the ultimate fighter 8 finale had 1853.

Those crowds seem so small to me.

TUF 9 Finale - 2,217 (1,801 paid) and total gate of $498,650...damn......just doesn't seem right.


WEC 37 at the Hard Rock in Vegas - 643
WEC 41 in Sacremento - 13,027
WEC 42 at the Hard Rock Cafe in Vegas - 2,082

I never realized they were all over the place. Anywhere from around a 1k to 13k.....I guess the bigger one's are the PPVs.

I found it weird when they were interviewing Mike Brown in the audience, you could hear a pin drop in the crowd.

I still want to see a grudge match....whether it be in WEC or UFC.

Aren't all the tuf shows held in a smaller venue? So I don't think thats a good comparison.

Was the event sold out?
