Sergio Pettis

Sergio Pettis, the brother of the last WEC Lightweight Champion and
current UFC lightweight Anthony "Showtime" Pettis is only 17 years old
but has been training at the prestigious Roufusport camp preparing to
walk in his brothers footsteps. Now, he will take the next step of his
career as he competes for the Canadian Fighting Championship (CFC) in
September in his first pro bout.

CFC President Giuseppe DeNatale exclaimed, "I’ve been hearing about
the Pettis boys for several years now, and I know they’re both very,
very talented. I’m excited and honored to have Sergio competing on our
show, and I look forward to seeing him put on a great performance. It’s
going to be a great night for fight fans."

About his first professional fight, Sergio had this to say: "It’s
going to mean a lot. If I lose, it could determine my future in the
sport. And if I do well, it could be a huge boost. So there’s a lot of
pressure on me, but I’m going to have to pull through."

"Showtime" is also very excited about his brother’s pro debut: "It’s
awesome. I set out in this sport to do that, to help pave the way for
him. I think he’s going to have a very successful pro debut. And he’s
going to make a big impact in this sport. The sport can be lucrative,
and he’s going to take advantage of that. Sergio has a very, very bright
future."

Anthony continued, "He’s my main training partner, and he’s only 17
years old. Whether it’s me, Erik Koch, or Danny Downes, Sergio is
holding his own against all of us in training. He’s going to be a
monster, and he’s going to do huge things in MMA."

Sergio, for his part, is grateful to have such a great team,
including his brother, behind him. "It means a lot that my brother and
the team have helped me like they have. They’ve always there for me. And
Anthony always calms me down. I’ve gotten frustrated in some of my
amateur bouts, and he’s done a great job at helping me keep my
composure. It means a lot, and it helps me out a lot. He’s a good coach.

"I’d like to thank Coach Roufus, the fight team, my brother Anthony,
and the CFC for giving me this opportunity. I plan to take advantage of
it!"

"Congrats 2 my lil bro @sergiopettis on his win!!!" -Anthony Pettis, cornered his younger brother.

Resurrection Fighting Alliance is heading into the UFC's backyard for an event in early October, and it's made another talent acquisition.

The undefeated Sergio Pettis (5-0), who's the brother of UFC lightweight Anthony Pettis, has signed a multi-fight deal with the burgeoning promotion, RFA matchmaker Scott Cutbirth today told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).

Pettis will fight an opponent to be determined at the event, which takes place in Las Vegas and airs live on Fight Now TV. A date and venue have yet to be confirmed.

Pettis trains alongside his brother and a bevy of top-tier talent at Roufusport Academy in Milwaukee. This past month, he earned a first-round submission win in regional competition.

Additional talent featured on the October event includes Tyson Griffin, Gilbert Yvel, Chidi Njokuani, Chris Holdsworth, Bubba Jenkins and Lance Palmer, Cutbirth said.

The promotion recently announced another spate of high-profile signings. Former UFC lightweight and featherweight Tyson Griffin joined its ranks, as well as former Olympic wrestler Steve Mocco, who is set to make his MMA debut with RFA.

RFA has held three previous events in Kearney, Neb., but is based in Las Vegas and aims to move its operations closer to home. Cutbirth estimates the promotion will hold three to four more events by year's end.

"The first three shows went well enough that we want to commit growing larger," Cutbirth said.

And while the UFC casts a big shadow in Las Vegas, the RFA has no plans on competing with it.

"They're where there at for a good reason: They do things really, really well," Cutbirth said. "There's no competing. There's only one Major League Baseball, there's only one NFL, and that's them.

"We're trying to take guys that we think still have the ability and the talent to get back to the UFC, or [build] prospects and getting them to that next level."

Cutbirth said more signings will be announced in the coming weeks.

His fight this weekend was pretty good. He looked 12 years old and 5 foot tall out there. He got worked over a little bit at the beginning of the fight but picked it up as it went on.
