WEC: Faber vs Pulver

I am pumped for this fight, Jens is obviously the underdog but I think that he has something for Faber and will be able to end it by tko in the second round. What do you guys think?

I am also looking forward to see Miguel "The Mullet" Torres to fight again. His last fight he put on a clinic and I am looking for another repeat performance from him. I see him taking that fight in the first with a sub.

I voted Jens but I have to say I hope its a war I really like both fighters. They haven't said any negative shit about each other.And Torres is going to dominate.

I've met pulver, one of the nicest guys in the world. I would love to see him beat Faber and win the title after all the shit he's been through the past couple years. It will be tough though.

I think what is going to happen with this Poll is a lot more people are going to vote with emotions instead of their head. I know I did, I voted for Pulver. I think Faber will probably win, but I am pulling for Pulver in this one. He is one of those guys in MMA that it is almost impossible to root against, kind of like Randy Couture before he opted out of his contract.

I think Faber takes a decision. It's just his time right now, but it ain't like Pulver's gonna go quietly. This fight is gonna be a war and I can't wait to see it. It's the sort of fight that I can see easily have a rematch.

This isn't even going to be a fight, Faber will crush Pulver into dust and will blow away into the wind. Pulver is way over hyped and isn't a top 10. Smart promos make people want to watch this but it won't be much of a fight. Faber by tko 1st round.

Jens has never been beaten at 145 and I am not going to bet against him now. His only problem at 155 was that everyone was bigger then him and I don't think Faber is going to have the ability to throw jens around.

One, have you ever seen Pulver fight, I mean outside of the Lauzon and Penn II fight. If you watched his old pride fights, you would have seen Pulver hold his own with several of the best in the world. Even if you watched only the Penn II fight you would have seen how good his sub defense is against one of the best submission guys in the world, if not the best submission guy in the world. Faber is going to have his hands full with Pulver.

Yea, Faber is probably going to win, but he is not going to smash Pulver by any circimstances. This will be an all out war and it will and has a really good chance of going all 5 rounds.
