“California Love” hits the speakers and goosebumps send chills up my arms and spine. This dates back to the very first time I watched Urijah Faber fight back in 2006.
The man from Sacramento, California had already fought 16 times and was 15-1 as a professional fighter, but it was his King of the Cage match-up against current ONE Championship bantamweight kingpin Bibiano Fernandes that made me a fan.
This was Fernandes’ second pro fight and he definitely got his feet wet. The Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt was very dangerous on the mat, and that was where he looked to take the fight immediately.
