How about Mustafaev vs Pettis

[Pious Augustus]

That would be one hell of a fight
Pettis has no opponent at the top 10 & Mus deserve a chance at the top 10-15

 

[Hotora86]

Great fight.
Would watch.
Book it, Dana!

Pettis is looking for big name fights. A low name value but high talent guy like Magomed is not the kind of fight he'd take IMO.

I don't think he cares as long as he gets paid

 

[Pious Augustus]

I guess Magomed is not allowed to go to US. At least he looks like someone who shouldnt be allowed

he trains at ATT

 

[BooBoyMan]

There's no real reason for Pettis to take a fight against Magomed, too much risk and no reward.
If it happened though, I think I'd favor Mustafaev.

At least he looks like someone who shouldnt be allowed

Just a little racist/prejudiced, but I don't expect much else from Sherdog.

sounds great ,
clash of kicks

Mus-ta-faev. Second thread for today with wrong pronounce. I mean it's one of the easiest Dagestan last name to pronounce)

typo, I can easily pronounce his name and it's an Arabic name by the way "مصطفى" means "Chosen"

 

[Pious Augustus]

How much does Ali Abdel Bin-Laden pay you to shill for its fighters here lol

 

[Blazmo]

The hype around Dagestani fighters is getting out of control. Mustafaev TKO'd some can and suddenly he can beat the guy who just demolished Stephen Thompson? Are you guys for real?

I agree about Avaris/Chechens being wayyy too overhyped . Besides Khabib none of them is impressive at all.

 

[drbolony]

Lol, holy fuck this thread.

Yeah that fight would be fun, but like others have said, not a smart fight for Pettis. Probably wouldn't take it. Jon Makdessi would be fun if the Pettis fight doesn't materialize.

I like Pettis a lot, but in the last 4 years, Pettis is 2-5 at LW. He'd be the underdog against literally everyone in the top 15 except for Vick and Oliveira, maybe Hernandez too.

Magomed can DEFINITELY beat him, you guys are just ignorant. Go watch his fights or at least some highlights, he's not just getting hype because he's Dagestani lol...

No pal i didnt praise Pettis at all i've been saying for forever that he is only a gatekeeper even after his win against WB .

OK, but 'none of them are impressive at all'...? Really lol? Sorry, but that just sounds dumb.

Thing is, Mustafaev has done nothing to show that he could beat those guys either. The only reason you could possibly pretend to think that is if you're shilling Russian/Dagestani (blah blah Dagestanis/Chechens/who-gives-a-fuck are super speshul minorities who aren't really Russians blah blah) which you are, so kindly fuck off.

Yes, he has? Actually go and watch his fights, especially the one against Kevin Lee. It was competitive until he accidentally broke his arm.

I don't give a fuck about nationality moron lol, I judge a fighter only by his performances inside the cage.
Magomed is a great fighter, and I can definitely see him beating Pettis, Anthony simply has not been performing well at LW anymore.

 

[bongwater]

like hes going to get paid well for that fight, thats the whole point of fighting bigger names.

 

[Grapplefest]

Good fight, Mustafaev beats Pettis in my opinion
