Prediction: correct Petruzelli   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

12 in a row against nobodies mostly.  12 in a row against nobodies is still impressive but i think seth is the biggest challenge hes faced in a long time.

Ricco, easily.

Seth has never beaten anyone except nobodies. Any decent name on his resume is a loss...

ONLY A REAL MAN!

Prediction: correct Petruzelli   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

Proudly wears pink hair and causes the collapse of an entire MMA Company with a single punch. 
You have to love Seth man. Killed the kimbo hype in a matter of seconds. 

Seth's just sitting there, eating an ice cream cone, daydreaming. 

All of a sudden.... "SETH YOU HAVE TO FIGHT KIMBO!"

He's all "OK BOSS!" 

He does, the rest is history. :)

I guess I'm one of the few that picked Petruzelli, Rodriguez is a stand-up fighter and Petruzelli has KO power. I'll tkae the younger guy, Ricco's long past his time.

Ricco should take this pretty easily imo.

When Petruzelli last fought in the UFC he didn't look too bad, I think he'll be able to catch Ricco with a bomb.

seth lost to a guy named romero who in turn get destroyed by kyle kingsbury. seth has beaten no one. ricco had his drug thing and then came back and won 18 out of the past 20 fights. i don't care if most of them were cans but its 5 more cans than seth p. has in his career. i might even change it to first round sub.

Yeah, but did you watch the Romero fight? Seth was throwing bombs and rocked him but threw too many punches trying to finish him and gassed. The he got submitted by a knee bar or something, he didn't look that bad.

i saw the fight. it went back and forth. but he lost. actually ricco has a few somebody's on his last 18 of 20 wins. i see this as an easy win for rodriquez. plus i thought ricco was alot older than 33. ricco has been very active too.
