                    <blockquote>

A source close to the event confirmed the match up with Heavy.com earlier today.

Hominick is fresh off a split-decision victory over former 145lbs top contender Leonard Garcia at “WEC 51: Aldo vs. Gamburyan” this past September. The win was his third of 2010 with the other two coming over Yves Jabouin and Bryan Caraway at WEC 49 and WEC 46, respectively. The Canadian was originally slated to fight against featherweight champion Jose Aldo, but the time frame for his recovery did not work with the January 1 date of the title bout.

 Solid fight. I think Hominick may be too fast for him, but Roop keeps improving



This will be an excellent fight

3

seems like a step back for Hominick, would have liked to see a rematch against Mike Brown



should be an exciting fight though, hopefully its aired live

Doesn't Roop train with Shawn in Vegas as well?

What a great fight (TOO BAD WE WON'T SEE IT THANX TO THE MERGER)!!!!

Hominick has some of the best boxing in MMA imo. Roop's reach especially with his kicks might be a problem for hominick though, should be a sweet fight

10

Can't wait to see this fight several months down the road on Unleashed...


If the WEC was still around, we'd have this on the broadcast.
