According to FiveOuncesOfPain.com multiple sources have confirmed that the rematch is set to take place between former WEC Featherweight Champion Urijah Faber and former UFC Lightweight champion Jens Pulver at WEC 38 on Jan. 25 in San Diego, Calif.

Published reports had indicated that Faber’s next opponent would be up and coming featherweight prospect Jose Aldo but sources close to both Aldo and Pulver have revealed to Five Ounces of Pain that Faber’s next opponent is indeed Pulver.

Earlier this year, Faber and Pulver headlined the largest show in WEC history on June 1 in Sacramento, Calif. Considered one of the best fights of 2008, Faber retained his WEC featherweight title with a five-round unanimous decision victory.

This is a great matchup, as it was a very anticipated rematch following the first war that these two had, as well as an ability to see if Faber can rebound following his loss to Mike Thomas Brown, ending his thirteen fight win streak.

It will also let us see if Pulver has still got it, and let’s hope he does,
