46 and still fighting Russians on the highest level in sport... Some habits die hard... And that Polizzi win was epic if I remember, to finish guys in their prime at freakin' 46... Romero is a freak, a chosen one indeed
Pettis vs. Pitbull
Patricio Pitbull, DEC
Noway Pitbull going for even more alltime greatness and look how active he has been, almost at 40 wins now... I will lean Pitbull due to his activity level, the weight cut may deplete him though. I will see how weigh ins go

Nemkov way younger, better cardio. At least Yoel is a name.

Nemkov is incredible and he proved that last time out but even a 45 year old Yoel is still dangerous!
Pitbull is the Bellator GOAT and should be respected in the top 15 of all time greats, 135 is crazy especially at his age but we've seen Aldo make the move. Diet is the key, Sergio is no easy task either but against a healthy Pitbull.. Good luck

Bellator can still be a lot of fun just not doing much for world rankings at least not to the educated.
