i've never seen brown fight till last night. when i was watching his highlight reel it was obvious that he was the stronger of the two and gave him the advantage in that respect. i didn't however think he would win like he did. i always knew that faber couldn't take a well placed shot from anyone with at least decent power though. he always made up for his lack of power by being quick and agile while relying on his technique and risk taking movements to win fights for him. if you look at any of fabers past fights, when he gets hit with a solid shot he scrambles,changes levels and suprises his opponent.
but this time he was up agains a really strong d-1 wrestler with strong and accurate hands. the elbow attempt by faber when he was scrambling to get away from the cage would have dropped or backed alot of opponents away but brown timed that hook perfectly. it was a done deal from there on in.
