“Mentally, I already won the belt. The belt is already hanging in my house. I’m in the best shape of my life, and I know Miguel has beaten many fighters in his career, but he hasn’t fought me yet. I hope he’s ready cause I am.”
– Undefeated bantamweight and number one contender Manny Tapia considers a victory over current champion Miguel Torres to be a foregone conclusion in an interview with WEC.tv. The two will meet in the main event of WEC 37: “Torres vs. Tapia” at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Wednesday, December 3.

Can’t wait for this one. Come on Torres!!!
i hope torres kicks him in the head and knocks him out cold!
I dont see Torres loosing his title! Sorry Manny!
WEC is on this week?
yeah wednesday night. you should know that. i cant stand tapia. i hope torres KO’s him bad. a head kick like mikeybear suggested doesn’t sound too bad.
Two days away bud!!!!
I think that Tapia may be a bit too one dimensional for Torres. All of the Tapia fights I had seen, he mainly likes to slug it out. With Torres’ reach and muay thai, he is not someone you typically want to stand and bang with, especially since Tapia prefers to use his hands, and Torres uses hands, elbows, kicks and knees.
If the fight does hit the ground, I expect I quick highlight reel submission by Miguel Angel Torres!
BUT REMEMBER, no one in MMA is invincible, except for Fedor.
Enough with the fedor crap
I think this is going to be an awesome fight, but Im pulling for Manny. I used to hang out with his trainer Romie back in the day so I have to cheer for the guy.
vm: Just yesterday I was sad because I thought I had to wait till next wednesday for mma fights, but now I get to see Miguel in 2 days. WOW!!!
Hey Jigga, Young Hova, Shawn Carter…. I was going to put an “LOL” after my comment but decided no to.
Enough with this retired/not retired rapper crap!
Also, has Anderson Silva ever lost a fight? yes
has GSP? yes
has BJ Penn? Yes
has Chuck Liddell? Yes
has Gomi? Yes
has Fedor?? NO
please replace “Lost a fight” to “been beaten”
thats what ive been saying for months mike… people still try and argue that though, whatever
When u defeat as much cans as fedor has u shouldn’t be reconized as unbeatable. Anderson cleaned out a division and franklin is going to prove it by knocking out henderson. silva ko’ing franklin twice proves that point, while no else except for lyoto faired well!!!! anderson p4p best period!!! This arguement is done!!!!!!!!
dec is a good month for mma
they warm us up with a couple of fights and then the big one on the 27th!!!
i hope torres kicks him in the head and knocks him out cold
Hm… he thinks like I do. Well, not exactly like I do.
Mentally, I’ve already tapped Gina Carano’s ass. I’ve already carved that notch into my headboard.
hahahahaha best comment ever!
You must have a cankle fetish.
I think that bleach has seeped to his brain. Torres will school him where ever the fight takes place.
manny has good hands this fight will be great
torres sub choke rnd 3or4
Looking forward to finally getting to see Torres fight live for the first time. For FREE!!
