| Rumour: Faber Retirement?
if anyone cares, i personally don't;
a friend of mine who knows fabers sister was talkin to her and she said that he was contemplating retirement before the last fight and now that he's lost it might be more of a possibility.
might be another couple weeks before any headlines about this ,so i just thought i'd give a heads up.

It would be hard to see him leaving so quickly, he is finally making some chedda now, plus he probably has obligations with No Fear to fulfill

yea i know, but i thought comin from his sis that it's a pretty reliable source.
He hasn't fought anyone yet he has huge money to be made.

I agree no chance in hell, way too young, way too talented. this just might be a way to create a little (or allot of) PR. Maybe for more $ or put the 145 div in the big show, which i think would be good considering after the next few hw fights. Will they even have a HW div? Brock to me is superheavy, bottom line- win or lose this guy is just too big for a legit hw division. thoughts? nothing against brock but 60 pound diff in a fight is, well not MMA SORRY i got of topic but i figured it might fit.

I don't believe that one bit. He's 29 and has only been fighting for 5 years plus he's getting very popular and is the centre-figure of the organization. No way I see him retiring.

| Not Aware of This......
I actually train with Faber at Ultimate Fitness, in Sacramento and I have heard him say nothing of this. I am not that close with him, but I roll with him almost every day. I have heard him say that he is going to punish Brown over 5 rounds when they rematch.
He is in pretty good spirits actually. He had a post-fight party at the Club that I bounce at and he had a hell of a time......He had a few drinks and had a ton of fun. We couldn't keep him and Fernando Vargas off of the freakin furniture. hahahaha.

I call BS on this. Faber lives in the gym, he spends morning to late at night in his gym. He's not retiring for a long long long time.

honestly dude, unless you have a link or something, don't bother posting your thirdhand rumors. it accomplishes nothing because A) no one will believe you and B) if it is in fact true, its gonna reach us from a credible source.

Dude don't post junk like this in the future.
