Urijah Faber vs Renan Barao at 148

It's official


Like Barao although the 25 minutes makes it interesting. His striking is crisper and he's got some brutal leg kicks

Barao's timing and brutal striking is going to be the difference here.

Faber

Faber

I think Faber's experience vs top competition and the fact he has more tools in his belt gives him the edge.

I don't know for sure, but I got a feeling this is going to be a Hell of a fight!

Good fight.

If Faber dominates I am moving him to number 1. Being as that he imo won the first fight and can take dudes out while Cruz dances and prances.

lol, ur hilarious

Obvious troll is obvious.

Its not a troll. Just because you hold the belt doesn't mean you should stay number 1 if you can't defend it and if a guy who is significantly more dangerous comes along like in this situation. Plus, Faber rocked Cruz and knocked him down and should have won those rounds. Dance and dodge doesn't score well with me against finishing attacks. Fight to win, not to not lose.

he fought and he won!!! you ain't no mo fuckin judge

didn't you think that sanchez beat kampman? yeah... nvm

If Faber dominates Barao....lol stop

I like Faber in a close fight.

It's been 10 days since Renan Barao was named as Dominick Cruz' replacement at UFC 148 on July 7th in Las Vegas. He will meet Urijah Faber
for the UFC interim bantamweight title, and the betting line came out a
few days later. As expected, the lines were all pretty close to even.
But it seems that the betting public has put all the early money on
Barao, to the point that he's now a bonafide favorite. Here are the best
lines you can find at the moment: (via BestFightOdds):




I'm not all that surprised that the early money is on Barao, but
Faber is not someone that should be taken lightly. If the line moves any
more than this, I'd definitely be tempted to put some money on the
former WEC featherweight champion. Heck, I'm tempted right now.
