Anthony Pettis is UFC bound!

I have only seen him fight two other times and the guy showed some flash, but after tonight he should be getting plugged as the next contender for the LW division. The way he controlled Roller's wrestling was great. His striking is rediculous and the guy is a highlight reel waiting to happen. He threw kicks tonight I have never seen before. I have never been given cockeyes by a fighter before, but that kick in the second round made me think the tv messed up or something. After tonight I am really liking this guy. Joe Silva listen up!

He looked fucking awesome!!! Why the hell is no 1 on here talking about the fights tonight???

Not sure? I thought there would be 4-6 guys atleast talking about WEC. This card has been real good so far.

Did you see the Kenny Powers and Faber commercial? That was hilarious. Eastbound and down rules!

Yeah I dont know where every1 is tonight. I am gonna watch the main event and go to bed. I actually have called off work the last 3 days and have to go back tomorrow.

Yeah i saw it that was funny as hell!

i am watching on verses

We are too!!!!

That round was close.

Great fight and the third judge had it right 49-46 Cruz. Another great WEC card!

It was a great WEC card.

i picked Rolles but shit Pettis looked good glad to hear he works with Askren all of a sudden i dont care that i was wrong

Pettis did look real good def a contender at 155 for the WEC I just wouldn't say he's UFC bound yet. UFC 155ers aren't gonna give him a triangle over and over untill he gets it. Shanes corners was screaming to watch for the triangle to get his posture but he kept putting his head down and leaving one arm in.

got totally blazed, could not keep my eyes open and passed out. Oh well, I picked Pettis too.

Pettis did look good. Roller couldn't get anything going on the ground but he was clearly outmatched standing. Pettis looked really good off his back too, submission after submission.

I disagree. Pettis could beat alot of the 155ers in the UFC and so could a few other guys in WEC.

Pettis is 23. Sooner or later he is in the UFC.

Shane was getting his ass kicked he had to take chances and he got caught in the triangle.
