Anthony Pettis-The rise of a champion

[AJ Garcia]

Pretty sweet video. Talks about growing up and having to take tkd classes after school because his mom was always working.

All hail THE Lightweight GOAT! So many false prophets from the Penns to the Edgars to the Bendos. The real King has arrived and is just getting started.

I've been saying he would be UFC champ before he fought Benson the 1st time, always thought it was weird how people didn't recognize how good he was and actually thought Cowboy or Benson(2nd fight) could beat him

Just getting started, right.
So he's got a long way to go to achieve LW GOAT status.

" And be sure to watch his next fight in the Summer of 2016"

Even with the layoff, it's nice to see a champ putting people away at any second, rather then grinding out a debatable split decision every fight.

Agreed nothing worse than a fight where guys are arguing who won 6 months later. Pettis beats guys in devastating fashion and makes it look easy

Cool video and thanks ts.

No problem. Saw it posted on his fb page so I thought I'd share

Thanks for sharing, TS. Ya Pettis is the man, he's in tough against Khabib but if he can get by him he's gonna have a good run I think

LW GOAT status already in the bag though. Name a more worthy GOAT argument at Lightweight? Penn has 3 losses to Edgar who has 2 losses to Bendo who has 2 losses to Pettis who just beat another top guy Melendez and has the belt. Just getting started towards GOAT status at 27 years old. He and Jones holding hands together racing towards all-time GOAT status and tussling with the Fedors, GSP and Silvas for that title.

If he finishes khabib and someone else and then wins a super fight with Aldo, he'll start being in more than just lw goat discussions.
