WEC Signs Palaszewski, Curran Drops a Weight Class

The WEC has offered IFL light heavyweight “Bartimus” Bart Palaszewski (29-11) a six-fight deal and may have him fight 10 September in Hollywood, FL, according to Sherdog.

Palaszewski’s coach “Big Frog” Jeff Curran (30-10-1) made the announcement Sunday, which was how “Bartimus” found out as well.

Palaszewski most recently fought in June at Adrenaline’s debut event, where he TKO’d Jeffrey Cox (9-6) in the second round.

WEC featherweight Curran also announced he would move down to bantamweight.

After fighting “California Kid” Urijah Faber (21-1) unsuccessfully for his belt in December, he lost a unanimous decision in June to Mike Thomas Brown (17-4).
