Urijah Faber fell short once again in his bid to capture a championship on Saturday night, dropping a decision to Renan Barao at UFC 149. The loss was his fifth straight in title fights, and may very well be his final shot at a title. What is unfortunate about that thought is he had to battle through an injury throughout the fight, breaking his rib in the first round. Though it may not have ultimately mattered, and though Barao may have done plenty to take the decision regardless, the injured rib certainly had an effect. Check out Faber's x-ray below:
