the fights just keep stacking up for ufc 136 and 137. i just picked pettis by second round tko. after fighting guida i think he will throw caution to the wind and come out guns a blazing and kicks a blazing. stephens is only 25 years old. he seems to been around forever. should be a contrast in styles. they sure are not giving pettis any easy fights.

Woah how many great fights are they putting together around now? ****.. I think this is going to be an absolute war and Stephens catches Pettis with a monster punch sometime in the 3rd ending his night...

Could Pettis even make that? I didnt think he was that small of a lightweight? Im also taking Stephens hes a beast..

yeah i think he could make it rather easily, he's not a big 155er and he's not ripped...so i don't think he'd have much trouble making it...i just think he's gonna get handled by all the beast wrestlers at lw

plus him and aldo on paper sounds awesome

Yeah thinking about it he could do quite well at featherweight although he would probably lose to the wrestlers like Mendes and Griffin but then again theres not half as many as lightweight..

i can't really think of any others, i think he matches up better with griffin than he would with say maynard...mendes would probably control him at 145. but he's probably gonna control most anyone at 145

Ya it was alright but still Guida was high calibre wrestler.. Then again Im a huge Griffin fan and maybe biased as I would always pick him to win..
