WEC 43 officially complete
by Jacob Camargo on August 17, 2009

The WEC has confirmed that the previously rumored featherweight bout between Mark Hominick and Deividas Taurosevicius will complete the line-up for WEC 43.

Hominick and Taurosevicius were initially set to fight at "Affliction: Trilogy," before the promotion folded earlier this month.

Hominick has not fought since defeating Savant Young at Affliction: "Banned" last July. In his previous stint with the WEC, he went 0-2 suffering submission losses against Rani Yahya and Josh Grispi. The longtime TKO veteran has stoppage victories in 13 of his 16 career wins and holds notable wins in his seven-year career over the likes of Yves Edwards and Jorge Gurgel.

Taurosevicius is coming off a loss to Ryan Schultz at an IFL event last May. Prior to the loss, he had been on a six-fight win streak, which included wins over Dan Lauzon, Savant Young and Bart Palaszewski. Out of his 10 career wins, 8 have came via submission. The Cage Fury Fighting Championships and Reality Fighting veteran holds a notable loss to UFC contender Frankie Edgar.

WEC 43 takes place on September 2 in Youngstown, Ohio and the main card will be telecast live on VERSUS. The event is headlined by a WEC interim lightweight title bout between Donald Cerrone and Ben Henderson.

Other bouts set to be featured on the main card include a lightweight fight between undefeated prospect Dave Jansen and former WEC lightweight title contender Richard Crunkilton, as well as a bantamweight bout between Damacio Page and Akitoshi Tamura. Lightweights Alex Karalexis and Anthony Pettis will also square off on the main card.
