leaving the UFC for Showtime's Pro Elite?
[edit]Brandon Vera recently appeared at a press conference for Elite XC, the new MMA company that will be running events on Showtime, and talked about the possibility of leaving the UFC to join Elite XC. This despite the fact that his next UFC fight was going to be for the heavyweight title. Full details are at http://www.ivansblog.com/2006/12/mixed-martial-arts-vera-attends-elite.html; I don't know if you think it's newsworthy but if so you can add it to his main section if you want.
A peurto rican filipino italian?
[edit]Possible but I highly doubt it. Someone provide a cite for this stuff? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.190.29.150 (talk) 04:45, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- The first cite on the cites list says his father is Filipino-American and his mother is Italian-American. Vera has always called himself as a Filipino-American. hateless 05:13, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- I guess his stepmother was Filipina too. [1] (His dad married a pinay when Brandon was 3 years old) --92.229.222.114 (talk) 20:20, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
Lost
[edit]I added these lacking references plus specifics to expand: (4:40 minutes into the first round).

External links modified
[edit]Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to 2 external links on Brandon Vera. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
- Attempted to fix sourcing for http://mmajunkie.com/news/27243/thiago-silva-vs-brandon-vera-rematch-set-for-may-15-in-virginia.mma
- Attempted to fix sourcing for http://mmajunkie.com/news/27298/brandon-vera-injured-out-of-ufc-on-fx-3-rematch-with-thiago-silva.mma
