Calgary scratched; WEC 49 now official for Edmonton on June 20

With the UFC planning upcoming events in Canadian outposts Montreal and
Vancouver, the Canadian debut of the company’s sister promotion, World
Extreme Cagefighting, was just a matter of time.

That time is June 20.

But while WEC officials had discussed a potential event in Calgary, the
WEC will actually head a little further north in the province of
Alberta, and WEC 49 will take place in Edmonton.
