Bowles reckons he is the man to beat Torres

Bantamweight fighter Brian Bowles reckons he has what it takes to beat World Extreme Cagefighting champion Miguel Torres.

Bowles will fight Torres at WEC 42 on August 9.

He told MMA FanHouse: “Every great champion has someone who figures his game out and comes along and beats him. I think I’m going to be the guy who comes in, fights him the right way and beats him.

“I’ve definitely got a good game plan, and I think the key to beating him is coming out with a good game plan, sticking to it, executing that game plan.”

He added: “I’ve been mentally and physically preparing for him for a long time. And the other thing is, having more than 30 fights will wear on you. All those fights can tear you down, make you slower and beat you up. Having 30 pro fights isn’t always a good thing.”
