Isn't the UFC going to Mexico soon? I think this is the fight. Joe Rogan has compared Yair to Anthony plenty of times. Let's see it.

Winner get's the showtime nickname.
 
I'd take Pettis... I don't think Yair would have the power or accuracy to take Pettis out, and Pettis would chop him with those nasty kicks...

Not a good fight imo, would rather see Pettis Vs Holloway or Cub
 
That's a great fight, book it Dano.
 
Pettis is MUCH more polished than Yair at this stage.

Would be a fun match up though.

Agree with this. And Yair likes to randomly take people down and if he does that to Pettis, he's getting subbed quick and proper.
 
Aren't both working with Izzy Martinez and Jackson-Wink?
 
Pettis would wreck him. Also think Yair will get ground out if he faces an elite wrestler in that division. Would pick Mendes, Lentz, or Bermudez to grind him into a paste.
 
Yair is like a diet Pettis

There's nothing like the real thing
 
Kind of a step back for Pettis but I'm fine with it. Another easily winnable fight while he adjusts to the weight cut.

But yea Oliveria was #6 and I don't think Yair is even top 10.
