Faber got caught. Simple physics in that one.

That was my take. The WEC probably lost more than Faber did tonight...I know they had big plans for him. Oh well, there will be big bucks in the rematch.

He shouldn't have gone for that spinning elbow strike. He turned right into Brown's right hand and it was good night Faber. The major flaw in Faber's game was his willingness to take chances and it just happened to cost him tonight. A rematch will be sweet.

It's pretty easy to say that he shouldn't have gone for the elbow. Had it landed, everone would be praising him for it.


Brown did a good job and Faber got caught. You fight long enough it will happen.

Looks like he was going for a heel hook and something just gave. Either that or it's a type of submission I've never seen

he threw a stupid spinning back elbow and Browns fist was right there. more of a lucky punch than skill or anything.
