WEC division rankings - post WEC 47

A new champion was crowned at WEC 47 in Columbus, Ohio as challenger Dominick Cruz (15-1) handed bantamweight champion Brian Bowles (8-1) the first loss of his career. Cruz not only earned the WEC belt but assumes the crown as top 135 pound fighter in the world with the win.
Taking a look at the WEC divisions following WEC 47, the next challenger to Cruz's belt could be a number of different contenders.

Joseph Benavidez (12-1), who previously dropped at decision to Cruz at WEC 42, has gone from 25 year old prospect to top flight bantamweight challenger in less than 12 months. Benavidez continues to improve his game and looked overpowering in his submission victory over former 135 pound kingpin Miguel Torres (37-3).

Not to be out done former Pac 10 champion wrestler Scott Jorgenson (9-3) put away Chad George (11-5) in 31 seconds via guillotine choke. Jorgenson has now won three consecutive fights since dropping a controversial split decision to Antonio Banuelos (17-5) in June 2009.
