William Campuzano (phalanx management fighter) WEC 135 lb fighter highlights

At the end of 2009, I was approached by William Campuzano, a fighter out of Dallas Texas, trained by Alan Mohler and George Prevalsky, and I was asked if I could be of assistance in his career. Will had some problems with people seeing all that he is capable of and wanting a piece of the action, and had some bad decisions made on his behalf, one of which cost him a spot in the WEC.

When William contacted me, I made a bold claim that I would have him in the WEC in a few months if I was to manage him. This is not a testament to my skills as a manager, but to Will's skills as a fighter. And after picking up a golden opportunity to fight on the main card in San Antonio against top 10 fighter, Damacio Page, Will was in the WEC!

His first fight didnt go as planned, as Damacio Page is a fighter that demands an entire camp to prepare, and Will had just over 2 weeks. As a game fighter, Campuzano stepped up to the plate. It was a short fight with Damacio ending it in a RNC, but for a brief flash, before he took Will down, the whole world had a chance to see Will stand in the pocket and unleash some dazzling strikes.

A few short months later, William put on Fight of the Night in a win over Coty "Ox" Wheeler. William is now training for his next challenge in the WEC and hopes to start picking up sponsors and to have more people take notice to what the MMA fans of Texas have been aware of for years!
