As Anthony Pettis prepares to fight Donald Cerrone at UFC on Fox 6 in what is expected to be an all-out stand up war, "Showtime" guarantees that master MMA gameplanner, Greg Jackson -- who is Cerrone's trainer -- will call for a takedown first.
Despite a loss to Clay Guida in his Octagon debut, Anthony Pettis, who is now on a two-fight win streak, deserves to contend for Ben Henderson's newly-won UFC Lightweight Championship. He was able to take away his WEC title, now Pettis deserves to try it again in the UFC.
The UFC returned to Japan and set up shop in the Saitama Super Arena, a favorite haunt of PRIDE Fighting Championships. But instead of thinking of the defunct Japanese promotion, it was another folded company that everyone was thinking of at the end of the night.
The ratings are in for The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 14 Finale this past Sat., night (Dec. 3, 2011) in Las Vegas, Nevada, and they're far better than anyone could have imagined.
According to a report, lightweights Joe Lauzon and Anthony Pettis have agreed to square off at the UFC 143 event that will take place on Feb. 4, 2012, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Ben Henderson's manager Malki Kawa believes Henderson and Clay Guida should meet to determine the top contender at 155 pounds. Kawa, in this case, is dead on the money.
UFC lightweight number one contender Jim Miller talks about the Anthony Pettis vs. Clay Guida fight, his fight with Ben Henderson, being the number one contender, and much more.
