Exclusive: Pulver Wants Kid Yamamoto, Responds To Cub

MMANews.com's own Chris Howie recently caught up with former UFC Lightweight champion, Ultimate Fighter coach and the newest addition to the exciting 145 lb. division of the WEC – “Little Evil” Jens Pulver.

When asked about his upcoming fight with Cub Swanson at WEC 31 later in December, Jens said: “I am looking forward to fighting Cub [Swanson] very much. I can not wait to see what Cub thinks my weakness is. He was going around saying he found my weakness and that he only had to train a little bit a day for me. I know what my weaknesses are but I’m looking forward to seeing what he thinks they are. I hope he comes in straight on like he has fought everybody else, unchecked and untested. I can’t wait.”

As for his drop to in weight to the WEC's 145 lb. division, Pulver knows who he is looking for: “This 145 lb. division is going to blow up,” he started. “I want to see [Joachim] “Hellboy” Hansen get his ass on down here and I know who you’re talking about, [Kid] Yamamoto, that’s a fight that’s been talked about for years between him and I. Let’s get him on in here too.”
