Urijah Faber could fight at WEC 36

July 16th, 2008

WEC’s golden boy Urijah Faber could be making his return to the cage this September. Whispers running through the rumor mill indicate that Faber could be close to agreeing to a possible Featherweight title defense against Mike Brown on September 10th. The fight would come sooner than expected after Faber received a six month medical suspension due to a hand injury he sustained during his last title defense against Jens Pulver.

However, the suspension was not mandatory. If Faber could get medical clearance, the suspension would be lifted and he would be free to fight at his discretion.

Brown may not be as formidable of an opponent as Pulver, although he brings more credibility than Faber’s previous opponents. Brown is currently 17-4 and riding a seven fight win streak. And during that win streak, only two of Brown’s bouts have gone the distance. Mmamania.com ponders the possibility of Faber vs. Brown showdown.
