So, You Want To Be A Fighter?

While I'm sure that Dana White is looking into suing me for using his catchphrase, I couldn't help it but use it when I saw this picture. Last night, The two baddest 145 pound men on the planet met in a WEC ring and Mike Brown retained his title over My boyfriend, Urijah Faber.

Somewhere in the first round, Commentator and #1 contender to the UFC Lightweight Title Kenny Florian noticed how Faber had stopped throwing punches with his right hand and moved to only using elbows. He guess he had broken it on the top of Brown's head.

Turns out he was right. Check out this picture, Courtesy of Urijah Faber himself.



Nothing like breaking your hand on a dude's dome. The best part? Faber still managed to force a decision. He went FOUR MORE ROUNDS without throwing a punch and dealing with the pain of his hand being snapped in twine. Since Faber was winning the first round before his hand was broken, you can't tell me that he isn't still the favorite in the inevitable Faber-Brown III matchup.

Still want to be a fighter?
