In the biggest WEC event to date, WEC 34 featured two title bouts, in the bantamweight and featherweight divisions, respectively. Bantamweight Champion Miguel Torres defended his title against Yoshiro Maeda in the co-main event, while Featherweight Champion and all-around fan favorite Urijah Faber defended his belt against former UFC Lightweight Champion Jens Pulver in the most anticipated fight in WEC history.


The two title fights earned matching Fight of the Night bonuses.
