WEC bantamweight Charlie Valencia is hardly a newcomer to mixed martial arts.
On the contrary, the Californian has been a staple of the West Coast
fight scene since his professional debut in 2000. But the eight-time WEC
veteran, who’s also fought under the King of the Cage banner seven
times, now finds himself in what is unquestionably the biggest fight of
his career at Thursday’s WEC 51 event.
Good, says Valencia. Bring on the challenge. That’s what fighters are supposed to do.
