WEC (World Extreme Cagefighting) isn't a pro wrestling organization like it sounds like. Instead, it is the little brother of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). They are both owned by Zuffa, and run by Dana White.
So Yahoo! Sports columnist Kevin Iole says it is time for the two to merge and let the names like Miguel Torres, Dan Brown and Urijah Faber be on par with the Georges St. Pierres and BJ Penns of the world.
It makes business sense to add two divisions to the UFC and create bigger stars. So will they do it? Or will someone beat UFC to the punch and offer a higher profile fight organization for the lower weights?
