Urijah Faber appeared on “The MMA Hour” with Ariel Helwani on Monday and announced that his forthcoming bout against Brad Pickett on Dec. 17 would be the final one in his distinguished career. It struck me as fitting that Faber would go out against Pickett on network television at UFC on Fox 22 and not just because it’s in front of his hometown Sacramento, California, crowd at the brand new Golden 1 Center.
