This is a perfect example of the one thing I can't ******* stand about Ariel...

He acts like this is wrestling and 10 different "fueds" have to be going on to keep the sport interesting

So annoying

I can't wait for this fight, I like both guys but I will be rooting for showtime in this one!

This fight will be insane. I like both of them but I've always been a bit more of a Cowboy fan myself.

This is the first time that I've EVER been rooting for Cowboy.  Not that I don't like him, but he's always fighting guys that I like more.  In this case I can't stand Pettis so I hope Cowboy destroys him

This fight is amazing, I see a slight advantage on the feet for Pettis and maybe a slight advantage for Cowboy on the ground. They probably gonna bang it out though. So I predict a 29-28 for Showtime...

I predict Pettis attempts a dropkick from the top of the cage and the fight ends in this sequence:
Pettis flying knee
Cerrone with a crunching body kick followed by a LHK that floors Pettis
Cerrone pounding away with Herb Dean ready to stop the fight
Pettis throws his legs up and locks up the triangle for a Sonnen/Silva-esque finish

@Live2 nice scenario there. They both have wicked guards with explosive triangles. So it's possible but I think we gonna see one of the sickest stand up fights ever.

Well at least I hope so, I thought the same about Condit vs Diaz...
