During TAGG Radio today it was announced that former UFC Lightweight champion "Little Evil" Jens Pulver will be making the drop to Featherweight (145 lbs.) and debuting in the World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) promotion at the September 5th show scheduled for the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.

It was also announced that Pulver's debut would be against fighter Cub Swanson. Swanson said he was offered a fight with Mark Hominick and Jens Pulver and chose the fight Pulver.

It was also announced during the show that Mauricio "Shogun" Rua will be debuting in the UFC against Ultimate Fighter season one winner Forrest Griffin, and not "Lyoto" Ryoto Machida like the company themselves announced. We're awaiting confirmation on that one, but the rumor is out there. Time will tell.
