Ideal PPV Scenario in the Bantamweight Division?

[daryldeal]

If FABER upsets Cruz then this setups a "Master vs Student" type of story vs TJ? Would you be interested in that to unfold? will it gather great interest? I think it's quite an interesting scenario

That would be a pretty minor headline. We'd like it. But it'd maybe hit 300k, and would need a pretty great main card.

They just aren't big enough for PPV.

Sure. But I think Dom has other plans...

Not a PPV in my opinion. Faber vs tj would be a good fox or FS 1 main event in Sacramento .

Mannn the Master vs Student thing is what the Bantamweight Div needs to gather interest the UFC gonna hype that up!

Faber isn't beating Cruz so what other scenarios do you have?

still possible man, its a crazy sport

I could see it being a solid co-main on a big card, like a McGregor or Rousey card.

Fabers gotten worse but Dom hasnt

Not in discussion because Cruz will decisionate Faber pretty easily.

I might be a loner here but I got Faber. I said before the title fight that TJ needed to use a grapple heavy approach to beat Cruz (TAM style). The only round I gave TJ was round 4 where he iniatied the wrestling. Instead, Ludwig brainwashed TJ into thinking he was a Muay Thai figther and I had him losing 49-46.

Faber is a better grappler and has more power than Cruz. Plus, imo this isn't the best Cruz. This isn't the same Cruz that beat Faber a few years back (if Robbie beat Condit then Faber should be 2-0 vs Cruz). As long as this fight isn't a pure kickboxing fight Faber has a very good chance of winning.

And I'm very interested in Sensei vs student fight.
