There have been a lot of good fights lately and I just saw Urijah Faber submit Jens Pulver in the first round on Sunday. For those of you who might not know – Faber won a decision over Pulver last summer and then went on to lose his belt to Mike Brown. Jens Pulver lost his last two fights so yesterdays fight was all the more important for both fighters.
The headliner fight was disappointing because Jamie Varner was slightly ahead in points and receive an unintentional foul by Donald Cerrone in the 5th round – grazing Varner’s temple with a knee (Varner was still on his knees). Varner was able to get Cerrone to the ground but Cerrone seemed to be more comfortable on his feet (although he took lots of face shots and was cut up). The crowd was unhappy that Varner could not continue and seemed to like Cerrone’s attitude. That will be a rematch to watch.
This is a short post tonight as I wanted to say something about the Faber – Pulver 2 fight. Here is a clip.
