Here’s the thing with Urijah, even though he came up short
in another title fight, he is not quite in the same position as Chael Sonnen.
Sonnen was defeated by Anderson twice for the Undisputed Middleweight Belt;
Faber is 1-1 against Dominick Cruz and 0-1 against Barao so he is poised for
either a rubber match or rematch, also it helps that he is one of the
Bantamweight Division’s biggest draws. My point is even though Urijah lost the
Interim Title fight he is still the number 3 guy and rematches with both
champions are bound to happen before the end of his career. His future is a
little murky with no schedule for Cruz’s return, but I expect he will stay
active with a tune up fight which will inevitably also serve a title eliminator
to face the eventual winner of Cruz/Barao.
