Dougals Lima vs Anthony Pettis would be interesting
There's an interesting match-up I'd like to see one day if at all possible. Douglas Lima vs Showtime Anthony Pettis. I mean if Pettis were to ever bump up to welterweight one day, these two are so similar in their fighting styles and techniques. They also kind of look alike too. Ignoring the weight class difference, who do you all think would win?

Weight matters.

How would this ever happen?
Pettis just dropped down to FW (although he'll probably return to LW soon regardless of the result).
Lima is a WW who is planning to move to MW in the future.
I'd like to see Overeem vs. Khalidov one day if at all possible.

This. The size difference would be ridiculous.

Weight differences aside, Pettis would dismantle Lima. It wouldn't even be a contest.

Let's see, ignoring the weight class difference, Mighty Mouse beats Cain 9/10 times.
