  - MIZUGAKI VS. JORGENSEN SIGNED FOR WEC 45
Friday, October 30, 2009 - by MMAWeekly.com Staff
World Extreme Cagefighting has added a bantamweight bout to its year-end event on Dec. 19 in Las Vegas.
The WEC announced via its official Twitter account that general manager Reed Harris confirmed a bout between number four ranked Takeya Mizugaki and rising talent Scott Jorgensen.
The bout will likely be on the main card in support of the WEC 45 headline bout between lightweights Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone and Ed Ratcliff.
Mizugaki (13-3-2) enters the bout having gone 6-1 over the past two years, his only loss being to then-bantamweight champion Miguel Torres at WEC 40. Jorgensen (7-3) is hot off a win over Ultimate Fighter alumnus Noah Thomas at WEC 43.
This is a key bout for the promotion. Both fighters are but a victory or two away from a shot at current WEC champion Brian Bowles.
WEC 45: Cerrone vs. Ratcliff will be the second of back-to-back events for the promotion at The Palms Resort Casino in Las Vegas.
