After Donald Cerrone dominated Jamie Varner for a unanimous decision win at WEC 51 last month, he extended an open invitation to rematch in Varner’s Phoenix home for WEC 53.
After the bout, WEC general manager Reed Harris told MMA Fighting he’d let the two fight each other on every card if he could, but wouldn’t commit to the possibility of a third fight between them in December.
Now it appears both Cerrone and Varner will be fighting on the promotion’s Dec. 16 show in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Ariz. – but not against each other.
