Urijah Faber talks to Luke Thomas about preparing Chad Mendes for Jose Aldo at UFC 142. He also explains why a 'boring' and 'annoying' Dominick Cruz won't lift the lighter weight classes as a champion. Hear it/read it at MMA Nation.

man
urijah faber is really starting to come across as the muscley guy at the beach kicking sand in the face of the nerd.
is this a deliberate “heel turn” do you think? are we going to see more of that on the ultimate fighter?
personally, i think maybe so.
otherwise, he really has no idea what a dick he is starting to come across as.

I was thinking the same thing.
I’ve always been a big fan of Urijah’s but lately he’s been acting like a dick. I understand creating drama and hyping a fight is all part of the game, but he’s starting to come off like an asshole.

ha ha!
trolling luke thomas works again!
in all seriousness i have never watched pro wrestling and i hadn’t heard that phrase until i came to this website.
which may just make you barf again, i guess.
i blame roth.
Faber will be champion one day. Zuffa will just keep giving him shots until he somehow wins one. Yo Urijah, you’re 0-2 against Cruz and i don’t know anyone who thinks you deserve another shot at him, a bit of gratitude and a lot of humility is in order on your part.
They are 1-1
Faber choked Cruz out with a sick one armed guillotine from the mount in the first fight.

What he did bowles was nasty he crushed him.I think he deserves another shot there last fight was pretty close if you ask me I think a third fight would be awesome. Unfinished bussiness for sure

agreed
I think he did more to win the last fight. As far as the ufc is concerned faber is a way more marketable champ. Cruz is an extremely douchy point fighter.

Cruz's style annoys me to no end
If Faber can’t get the job done, I hope Barao kicks his legs out to slow him down, then tees off on him.

Based on the strength of this interview,
Faber just got 4 more title shots.
BOOSH

Wow, he’s actually talking about how a boring fighter being champ will hurt the lighter weight classes while preparing for Chad Mendes to become champion.
That is hilarious.
That might be the closes Urijah comes to touching a UFC championship belt.
