Aldo vs. Faber
Released by MMA Junkie
While “WEC 48: Aldo vs. Faber” represents World Extreme Cagefighting’s first effort on pay-per-view, the broadcast will apparently have a very familiar feel.
Longtime UFC broadcaster Joe Rogan announced today on his Twitter account that he and on-air partner Mike Goldberg will be handling broadcast duties for the April 24 event.
Featuring a heavily anticipated main event between WEC featherweight champion Jose Aldo and former champ Urijah Faber, WEC 48 takes place at ARCO Arena in Sacramento, Calif.
WEC officials weren’t immediately available to confirm the report when contacted by MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).
The move, if official, is the latest news that familiar faces within the UFC will be working closely with the WEC on the organization’s first pay-per-view effort to ensure a successful venture.
