Prediction: correct Pettis   correct Decision  

Pettis has the speed and the versatility to win this fight by decision, but all Stephens needs is one punch to change the whole direction of the fight. This one has FOTN written all over it.

Prediction: correct Pettis   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

I see Pettis either subbing Stephens early 2nd. Or Pettis totally controlling the stand up for 3 rounds and pull off a UD.

Prediction: correct Pettis   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

I got Pettis in this one. Stephens is good but I dont see Pettis losing to anyone that doesnt have elite wrestling.

I think Stevens has way more success than everyone on here claims. Pettis outstrikes him, but Stevens lands the bigger shots and the judges give it to Pettis in a very close decision.

Prediction: correct Pettis   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

I got a feeling that one of those Ong Bak moves that Pettis keeps trying to pull off will come to haunt him one day.

Ive never been a fan on Stephens. I think Pettis will sink a sub in the 2nd or 3rd round. Hes going to be hungry for a win after losing to Guida

I don't think Pettis is as good as the hype makes him to be but he will win easily with stephens whos biggest (and only big imo) win is Cole Miller.

Prediction: correct Pettis   correct Decision  

Pettis has good enough movement and leg kicks to keep distance from Stephens big punches, and I think Stephens will slow down after a bit and Pettis will win a decision tagging him with kicks and winning the stand-up.

Prediction: correct Pettis   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Pettis is probably a top 3 striker at LW, and I would have said that before the Showtime Kick. He's so diverse, creative and effective it's hard to see anyone doing much with him on the feet. He also has a terrific ground game. I think he'll outstrike Stephens, then Stephens will shoot, and get triangled.

1. You picked Stephens by decision

2. Pettis isn't rated all that highly

3. When Pettis wins you better come back here and own up...
