WEC 31: Faber vs. Curran was a mixed martial arts (MMA) event held by World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC). The event took place on Wednesday, December 12, 2007, at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada and was aired live on the Versus Network.
The main event featured a featherweight title match between champion Urijah Faber and challenger Jeff Curran. The card also featured Doug Marshall defending his light heavyweight championship against Ariel Gandulla, Paulo Filho defending his middleweight championship against Chael Sonnen, and the WEC debut of former UFC Lightweight champion Jens Pulver.
Future WEC & UFC champion Dominick Cruz was scheduled to make his bantamweight debut against Charlie Valencia at this event but was later forced from the card and replaced by Ian McCall. The Cruz/Valencia bout was rescheduled for WEC 34 the following June, where Cruz won by unanimous decision.
A featherweight bout between Chance Farrar and Micah Miller was originally slated for this event but was pulled from the card three weeks beforehand after Farrar suffered a hand injury. The bout was instead rescheduled for WEC 32 two months later, where Miller won by knockout.
The event drew an estimated 629,000 viewers on Versus.
