WEC 37- Brian Bowles vs. Will Ribeiro, who will win?

Settled as Bowles

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

Background:

From sherdog.com:

Spawned by the same Athens, Ga., gym as reigning UFC light heavyweight champion Forrest Griffin, Bowles (6-0) -- who tipped the scales at 135 -- has never gone the distance as a professional and has finished all three of his WEC opponents in two rounds or less. Victories over Charlie Valencia and Marcos Galvao launched him onto the international stage.

Ribeiro (10-1), who weighed in at 136, made a sudden impact in his WEC debut in June, when he earned a split decision against former bantamweight titleholder Chase Beebe. The talented 25-year-old Brazilian will enter his showdown with Bowles having rattled off four straight wins. Five of Ribeiro’s 10 victories have come by knockout or technical knockout.


Settlement details: As reported by a major mainstream news source. mmafrenzy.com and sherdog.com are good sources.
