WEC career
While his record for the WEC reads 0-1, Cardella was a winner in the minds of many fans and critics after his fight against Danny Castillo ended a split decision.[2][3] . After getting a win by first round armbar in the Shark Fights promotion, he was scheduled to fight Ed Ratcliff at WEC 42 on August 9, 2009[4].
