I respect the direction Pulver is heading, positive, rededicated towards his training and learning, his strategy for the fight. In the end though, Urijah will win, he’s lb for lb one of the best and getting better.

We just can count out Jens, after all at 145 lbs, who wiill have a better punchers chance then Jens? He has serious KO capabilities, especially in that left hand of his and while I expect Urijah to beat Jens up on the ground, standing with Jens is dangerous because he has a better punchers chance then anyone fighting at 145 lbs.

That’s correct John, but unfortunately, a puncher’s chance is the only chance Jens has. But like you said, if you had to pick one 145lb fighter to thow one punch looking for a KO – I’d go with Jens.

I just see Faber as being too athletic and well rounded for him. I am hoping that the fight goes past the first round and is not compltely one sided (with the exception of Jens winning by first round KO – THAT would be something!).

Faber vs BJ would be an AWESOME F’ING FIGHT to see.

I just hope it will be competitive, but I think Urijah is gonna run through Pulver. But then again I said the same thing about Cub.

I’m rooting for Jens I guess cuz he has more to lose.

I wish Faber would jump up to the UFC LW division. There’s some matchups that I’d love to see. But he’s stated in the past that he could drop to 135 and go after the Bantam weight Title, as well. He looks like a big 145er, I don’t see how he could drop to 135 without losing some strength, not that he would need it. At 135, it would come down to quickness and technique.

i dont think that would happen any time soon. he would be to small. he is a big 145 but not 155. then again if he beats pulver there really is nobody left in the fw division. ive been a pulver fan 2001 and alway root for him. go pulver!

I don’t know who to pick in this one. In my gut I gotta go with the younger, very talented Faber. But Pulver is from my neck of the woods. I would love to see him win. Either way I don’t really care who wins. I know its going to be a great fight.

Faber vs BJ would be an awesome fight??? BJ would completely destroy that little ass california kid dude. Doesn’t anyone else think all those WEC mini me’s are a joke?
