Mike Brown 'baffled' by Urijah Faber overselling his hand injury

As he told host Larry Pepe on Monday's Pro MMA Radio:

"I think it’s ridiculous. Maybe if he didn’t break his hand he would have stood in front of me and banged it out a little bit. I hit hard — then he really woulda went down. Denis Kang’s broken his hand multiple times, Thiago Alves, JZ Cavalcante, Benji Radach, and most of those guys more than once — they all have steel plates in their hands. But never once do you ever even hear about it. They just get their surgery and you wouldn’t even know. Just the way that it was all talked about so much baffles my mind. Look at Fedor. Did it affect the outcome because he damaged his hand smashing up Rogers? No, it didn’t affect anything."

Wow Mike Brown needed to worry about Aldo a little more instead of concerning himself with someone he already beat twice

yeah but....

the 2nd fight brown didnt even look convincing… he just scraped by, fighting basically a one armed fighter who had to basically halve his reach as he had to land elbows…

Brown is Way Overrated…. and Aldo proved it

Every night i would pray to God for a new bike, then i realized God does not work that way, so i stole one and asked him to forgive me

Just curious

Whats your excuse for Faber getting TKO’d the first fight? And what would be any possible excuses for when Faber loses to Aldo?
