WEC 37- Miguel Torres vs. Manny Tapia, who will win?

Settled as Torres

Torres won.
http://mmafrenzy.com/2008/12/03/wec-37-live-results-and-coverage/

Background:

The fights are live on Versus December 3rd. This one is for the WEC Bantamweight Championship. From sherdog.com:

A Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt who has emerged as one of the world’s top pound-for-pound fighters, Torres (34-1) will ride into the bout on a 15-fight winning streak that dates back to November 2003. The 27-year-old has finished his last 10 foes, six of them inside one round. Torres last fought in June when he stopped former King of Pancrase Yoshihiro Maeda in the third round in what many consider the “Fight of the Year.”

Tapia (10-0-1), meanwhile, will see his first action since undergoing surgery for a torn knee ligament. Based out of Millennia Jiu-Jitsu, he has fought only twice in the last 24 months and has not competed since he eked out a split decision against Antonio Banuelos at WEC 32 in February. A former King of the Cage champion, Tapia made his WEC debut in 2007 and snapped Brandon Foxworth’s 14-fight winning streak with a technical knockout victory.
