It’s been eight months in the making. On Sunday night, former World Extreme Cagefighting champion Urijah Faber gets his chance to try and win back the title from the man that stripped him of it, Mike Thomas Brown. The two will lock horns at the Arco Arena in Sacramento, Calif.

Brown was able to do what no other featherweight fighter in the world has ever done, stop Faber. When they met at WEC 36 in Hollywood, Fla. – in Brown’s backyard – he TKO’d the then-champ in just over two minutes of the opening round.

They’ve both fought twice since then, each scoring a quick first-round finish.
