He dominated that entire fight. He was just toyin' with that dude...he was still a raw talent back then it appears. He is obviously much more advanced today, I can't wait to go down Hollywood and watch him dominate Mike Brown!

Wow! Not the polished champ I am used to seeing. I have been trying to view some of his old fights, but the quality has not been as good as this one.

Did you hear the announcer say (about Urijah), “He is like a cat with a half-dead mouse; he just wants to torture it”? Man I needed to see that! I am so excited for November to get here.

I didn't mind the tight lil' shorts either. JUST Kidding!

That was gonna be one of my trivia questions.......Thanks seth !! Just kidding, for that fight Urijah had NO STRIKING TRAINING WHAT SO EVER (It kinda shows) he chose NOT TO WRESTLE OR USE TAKE DOWNS BECAUSE that was to easy and he wanted the fight to last longet then his first !!! Think about that for a second, a fighter with no stand up training makes a conscious decision to only strike..... so it would be "FUN" the dude is just a bad ass. He has comes miles from that fight !!! Good quality vid though....good find Seth i have seen all of Urijahs fights but usually terrible quality !!

That was a crazy fight. Urijah was in control the entire time. If you guys haven't seen it yet, this is the fight I show to all of my friends to introduce them to Urijah. I'm sure most have because its at the top of the youtube search.

YouTube - Urijah Faber vs. Bibiano Fernandes

If you have time scroll down and read what these kids are saying. Youtube posters argue like morons. They never have anything actually constructive to say

I totally agree with what you said about him making a conscious decision to only stirke seeing how that was his weakness. What a bad ass mo' fo'!

Wow, he has come a long way from that fight. Even though he dominated and won, it's still hard to see that kind of technique coming from him when we've seen him fight now. But I guess when you got it, you got it and he definitely does!

:confused: It's not there!
Probably at the request of George's parents, siblings and friends as they are still trying to get George to leave his closet. I was looking forward to seeing this video after all of the descriptions from people who've seen it and having wanted to see as many of Urijah's earlier fights as I could. I guess it pays to see things as early as possible on the youtube as you can.
