Featherweight Cub Swanson (11-2) will face “Streetfight Bancho” Hiroyuki Takaya (9-5-1) at WEC 37: Torres vs Tapia 3 December in Las Vegas, Swanson announced via MySpace.

Swanson was submitted in 35 seconds by “Little Evil” Jens Pulver’s (22-9-1) guillotine in December 2007, but rebounded in February to submit Donny Walker (2-4) via rear naked choke.

Takaya, a Shooto and K-1 veteran, was KO’d by “Bad Boy” Leonard Garcia (11-3) in round one at WEC 32 in February.
