Anyone interested in the Faber vs. Pulver fight this weekend? Look to be a great fight especially when it's on free TV. Lil Evil looks to be training harder than he ever has in his career.

War Jens!

Although I see him having a hard time with Faber I would like to see Pulver take this one.

Don't forget about Elite XC Saturday on CBS too.

if faber wins, it will be his biggest win ever. he hasn't really fought anyone the caliber of Jens before.

Hard one to call....Faber is so dynamic I think he could give Jens a lot of trouble. He has been rocked before, it's how he reacts to it if it happens against a guy like Jens that will tell the story.

Faber is -300 to Jens +250......some money to be made if you think Jens is gonna win it.

I want Jens to win but i think Faber takes it. He is just so much more athletic and well rounded.

This one is a tough one to call, but I think Faber might actually pull it off.

X2 but as stated, lil Evil has been training double time for this fight. I just hope its good and not super quick.

I like Faber, he is my favorite fighter. That said, he leads with his head and that will get him knocked out against Pulver. I hate to say it but I'm taking Pulver in this one. Faber has never fought anyone that strikes like Jens.

I agree, really like Faber but Pulver looks more motivated for this fight than he ever has been. It's well known that Pulver absolutely hates training and hasn't dedicated himself to it for a very long time. This time he is trying all kinds of new training techniques and spending all day every day in the gym. If Faber tries to punch with Pulver I am afraid he will get knocked out but if it goes to the ground I can see Faber winning with a choke.

I get it on basic cable here in bedford.

I can't really pick a fighter to win, i'd like to see puvler do it but faber's a tough sumbitch. like mentioned though he does have a tendency to lead in with his chin, and if little evil's been watching any fight footage, he'll have noticed and trained for it.

I'd like to see pulver knock faber out.. but like i said it's tough to call.

I actually think that Faber is going to dominate Pulver. Jens is going to wish he had stayed and tried his lottery shot at Penn rather then deal with Faber.

I know one of the cable companies in Arlington doesn't offer it. Lot's of pissed Star's fans during the playoffs.

I think you're funny..
Pulver is undefeated at 145, and Faber really hasn't fought anyone even close to the competition Pulver has fought in the past. Guys like BJ Penn, Calo Uno, John Lewis, Dennis Hallman, Dwayne Ludwig, Din Thomas, Takanori Gomi...

I do think Faber can win, but there is no way Faber is going to "dominate" Pulver. Little Evil is gonna put it on Faber. I actually see this fight going the distance, and being a judges decision.

You might be right, but I think we still haven't seen Faber at his best being pushed hard. Now saying that, the result could go either way being pushed like that so I understand what you are aying. I'm a big fan of Faber and have high expectations of him. I really don't see this fight going the distance either. Both fighters are way to active/explosive and both prefer stand up to let it go the distance.

IMO, I think this fight doesn't go past the second round with Faber KO'n or submitting Pulver using his superior speed and agility. We'll see what happens.

I guess we'll have to see if "here's my chin" Faber can keep Pulver from hitting it.

That was a great fight, very entertaining. It looked like Faber broke his hand during the 4th round maybe the 5th and little evils right eye socket was broken, he was favoring it towards the end of the fight.

Possibly. You could tell by the 3rd round Pulver was really frustrated with the speed of Faber. He was watching the clock nonstop and really didn't have any answers. Good fight though and a real good test for Faber.

I thought Pulver was playing games a little and got behind by the third, then realized he needed a knock out for the win, the knock out that never came. I am not a big fan of Faber but he is a great Fighter no doubt.
