Faber by strength.

Faber can fight at 155lbs, as well. He's a huge FW and would take Torres down at will.

taking torres down might not be the smart move, Torres' jiu-jitsu is better than Faber's

standing, i think if Torres used his reach to his advantage, he could frustrate Faber

i'd pick Torres to win

This would be one HELL of a fight. Rumor has it that Miguel is looking to beef up and move up one weight division. I would love to see him add 10 pounds of muscle and challenge Urijah.

Torres' skills are better and he is a more well-rounded athlete. The real question in this fight would be whether or not he can deal with Faber's wrestling.

With that said... Has Urijah even resigned with the WEC yet? I know they were having issues arriving at a deal.

Still, Faber is skilled and strong enough to get out of any Torres's attempts at a sub. Faber isn't just strong, he's quick as hell too. Faber wins this.

Common sense tells me to pick Torres to win but my gut says, Torres has only faught guys smaller than Faber... So basically my gut is telling me to pick Faber. Knowing Faber's heart, he would want to bang but knowing Faber's brain, he will probably out wrestle Torres.

Faber by Decision. No way is he gonna stand up with a guy who has an obvious reach advantage over him.

Torres would destroy Mike Thomas Brown because he might have a bit of power but Torres is alot better than him because if Faber didn't break his hand in the 2nd round he would have beaten Brown and I think Brown is overrated.

Faber / Torres is a very tough fight to call but I would say Torres would take a close decision.

There is no comparision to who is quicker it is definitely Torres and give your back to him like you did against Brown and Torres will definitely submit you because he has very good BJJ.

Wow, to each their own, dude.

Brown would destroy Torres. I hope these fights actually happen so everyone would see what I'm talking about.
