The flavor of the week comes and goes so quickly in the world of MMA that it’s hard to remember that less than two years ago, it seemed like Urijah Faber would never lose. In the midst of a 13-fight win streak and with seemingly no credible challengers on the horizon, an endless reign seemed possible for the featherweight superstar.

Fast forward to today, when Faber is a sizeable underdog to the surging phenom Jose Aldo for Saturday’s WEC 48.

The fight marks the first time WEC will attempt to sell itself as a pay-per-view attraction, a fact that is possible largely due to Faber’s participation in the main event. But will it mark a passing of the torch from Faber to Aldo?
