I wanted a third round of that so bad, but Roufus did the right thing.  And Pettis doesn't lose in the big picture with this fight.  He may have one on paper, but Showtime Pettis is back and is a danger at 155.

Props to Duke stopping the fight! Pettis should have never went to the ground.

Pettis and Ferguson brought it. Lets see how the main event does after the great lead up fights.
