For many years now bantamweight fighters have performed under the shroud of almost total anonymity. Unless you were a hardcore fan who followed smaller Japanese promotions such as DEEP and Shooto, chances are that you didn’t really care about the 135 lbs. division in MMA.
But times care changing, thanks in large part to World Extreme Cagefighting, which has helped expose many U.S. fans to the tremendous talent that exists in the smaller weight classes. And thanks in large part to the exploits of WEC bantamweight king Miguel Torres, the interest in the 135 lbs. division in this country has never been greater.

Bowles could face Curran, but i think both guys fall to Torres.

I wouldnt be upset if Bowles fought for the title right now. In fact i think that would be one of the best match-ups.In addition to the fac that he doesnt lose, every one of his fights is a great fight. He should definately be fighting for the title.
