im a big yamamoto fan. but honestly i think he should be fighting at 135. so with that said faber would stand with him for awhile. sooner or later go to the ground. gnp and land some heavy shots then rnc.

I have no idea. Faber is more well rounded than most of the fighters Kid has fought so I think Faber would win. I'm not that proficient on either fighter fighting top comp. though since they never have.
The best fighter Kid has faced was Genki and Genki is decent at best in the standup dept. This is one of them fights where we would have to see them fight the best to make a decision, but going by how impressive they both have been against the fighters they've fought, I would go with Kid.
Point is, IDK who would win.  | |

Kid has the ability to keep it standing and then destroy Faber with strikes... Faber has fought one really compeitive opponent (Griffin) and got his lunch packed... He would get his fudge packed if he fought anyone better.

I'm with you palma, I honestly think kid's wrestling completely nullifies urijah and urijah would get mauled standing..

KID by knockout. hes got dynamite in his hands and is probably one of the only guys at 145 that can outwrestle Urijah.

I don't think it would be close, Kid all the way.
