As to the lightweight title fight on june 1st I've been keeping up with Pulver and he really seems to have a fire in him that i havent seen in many years! I'm putting my money on Lil Evil ! Knockout in the 1st round!

Gotta go with Uriah. I say that because I've only seen about 10 seconds worth of 145 fighting out of Pulver. His wrestling will probablt be very solid and will win the standup with speed.

I say Faber wins by knees, high pace, rapid transitions, and meanness.

I see very little chance of Faber being put to sleep(or nearly) while standing and Jens can't sub him short of an RNC or something. Long night. at least 3 rounds imo.

im going with faber. he is too dynamic and has too much in his aresal for pulver to handle. i think jens give him a fight and it will be tough to finish him but he will be on his back for most of the fight. i think faber wears him down with his pace and puts him away late.

Even though I think Jens has faced tougher competition in his career than Faber has I still think Faber will take this without much difficulty. I think the ref is going to have to stop it in the 2nd RD.

I want to pick Jens to win by tko, but i'll prolly end up picks faber because the people i have been wanting to win havent been winning.

Faber. His performance against Jeff Curran showed just how hard it can be to truly put him away.

But Curran doesn't have the stand up pedegree that Jens does, i see what you're saying though.. I just want Jens to KO him in the first, but won't mind if it any round subsequent to that... hell i just can't wait period as im attending this fight in person

For anybody "going back and forth" or picking Pulver; He is a more than 2 to 1 underdog on betting sites. Solid play!

At the point that both fighters are in their careers, definitely without question this one will go to Faber.
