LAS VEGAS – Had it not been for Joseph Benavidez’s stunning finishes of
Rani Yahya and Miguel Torres, WEC bantamweight contender Scott Jorgensen may have already had his title shot.
But following Jorgensen’s “Fight of the Night” win over Brad Pickett at
Wednesday’s WEC 50 event in Las Vegas, even the notoriously fence-riding
General Manager of the WEC, Reed Harris, had to admit “Young Guns” was a
pretty clear-cut option for champion Dominick Cruz’s next bout.
“I can’t (see a reason not to give Jorgensen a shot),” Harris told MMAjunkie.com.
