Anyone watch this last night? I thought it was a great battle, sucks Faber Broke his right hand in the 1st round. Amazed at what he can still do without having his fists. If not injured, he would have won.

I read about it earlier, and it seemed like a great fight. Apparently Faber didn't quit at all but just couldn't pull it off with his hands. Hats off to him though for sticking it out.
Horrible fight, in my opinion. Brown could have ended the fight about 19,000 times.

Yea it seemed like at times Brown toyed with Faber, if they rematch again it will be the same outcome Brown is just the better fighter. Faber can't beat brown but it doesn't matter cause Aldo is going to beat Brown then Faber imo he is the best featherweight right now.

Horrible fight? Did you watch the same fight I did?
The reason Brown didn't end it is because Faber has a great all-around game which means he's great on defense just as good as he is w/ offense.
If Faber didn't break his hand in the first round he could have DEFINITELY ended it in the 5th w/ that choke he got on Brown... if not earlier when he rocked the hell out of Brown.
Faber won the 1st and 5th rounds which is pretty damn good considering he broke his hand half way through the 1st. The way he improvised with his elbows was insane.
