We're proud to announce we've recently signed WEC veteran Rani Yahya to a promotional contract for his upcoming bout against John Hosman. Rani has a record of 11-3 and was scheduled to fight Kenji Osawa at WEC 42 this Sunday. However, a foot injury suffered by Osawa, forced the organization to replace him with Hosman. As with many Brazilian fighters, Rani is a phenomenal jiu-jitsu artist, winning the 66 kg division of the prestigious Abu Dhabi submission-grappling tournament in April 2007.
