↵“I’ll probably go down to 135 (pounds) [then] go up to 155,” he said. “I don’t want to fight any of my buddies at [135 pounds]. I’ll just fight people I don’t like, and fights the fans want to see.
“(It’s the) same with going up in weight. I’m not trying to mow through the weight class; I’m trying to fight superfights that fans want to see. At this point for me, I’ve had 26 fights, and I just want to do big, exciting fights. Go up? Go down? It’s all good.”
Urijah Faber Willing To Change Weight Class
↵This is probably the right thing for the WEC. Until they have another star who proves they can draw like Faber they will probably need him to move to wherever the most compelling fight is to allow them to market the occasional PPV. Of course, should he beat Jose Aldo he’ll once again be champion at 145 so a move probably won’t happen any time soon.
