by Mark Peel on October 29, 2009

Zack Micklewright confirmed today that he has signed a multi-fight contract with the Zuffa owned World Extreme Cagefighting.  Although no details were released, Micklewright will likely debut Dec. 19 at WEC 45: Cerrone vs Ratcliff. No opponent has been named.

The undefeated Micklewright is an exciting addition to the lightweight division. The current Marine and Iraq war veteran served as as a mechanic in the armed forces. Since returning to the states in 2008, Micklewright has trained out of the Militich Fighting Systems camp, with famed trainer Pat Miletich.  Micklewright is undefeated as a pro at 9-0 after winning the Glory FC: Showdown lightweight championship against Ryan Bixler.
