Weight Class: Bantamweight MMA super star Urijah Faber (328) has frequently spoken of late of his preference for fighting on the preliminary Fox card of UFC events, which means that more people see his fights in comparison to PPVs. So, once again, Faber headlines the preliminary card at UFC 194 - which gives fans an excellent reason to tune in early. His opponent, Frankie Saenz (11-2), is on a six fight win streak and has won three straight in the UFC. That said, this is too much too soon for Saenz. Though Faber is coming off a loss, it was a move up in weight for a superfight with former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar. Faber has only lost in title bouts and to former champions, and he has never lost two fights in a row. Look for Faber to pick up a submission win here, in the first half of the fight.
