News Andre Petroski vs. Armen Petrosyan set for UFC 288 on May 6

[AimedWithV]

I'm sure that A. Petro wins this fight!

 

[mmuhr2]

matchmakers are so lazy... Petrosyan has already proven he has no takedown defense and no ability to get up from his back, which is where he will spend this entire fight.

 

[The_Renaissance]

Easy win for Petroski, he's been impressive lately.

 

[Thawing Mammoth]

Announcer better keep those names straight

 

[NicholasJBasile]

I'm not the biggest fan of this match up. I'd have preferred Petroski fight a higher ranked opponent. I do like watching Armen on the feet though -- very fun fighter. I don't think we'll see him much on the feet in this one though.

 

[DatSamboKid]

Decent MW scrap.

Agreed -- very lazy match making. I'm thinking they just made this since their names sound similar. I like Petrosyan and hope he has improved, but I don't think he quite deserves this fight.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

pretty sure matchmakers thought it was fun because of the last names

 

[Ares Black]

Classic striker vs grappler matchup


When in doubt, choose the grappler.

 

[Karelinator]

You are Petros, and on those Petros I will build my undercard.

 

[Eternalwarriorking]

Armen isn't an exciting enough kickboxer to be guarded from wrestlers in the UFC lol. I see Petroski finishing him

 

[TITS]

They did this match-up just to confuse the hell out of everyone.

Battle of the Petros lol

Petroski should be able to snatch a sub.

I actually don't mind this fight too much, but I understand your reasoning for not liking it and assuming Petroski wins.

I'm just not so sure...

 

[NoSmilez]

Petroski molests him.

 

[Iroh]

What does a green name staff member represent? Honarary platinum mod-admin hybrid? Or just being a writer for the main page?

 

[TITS]

Battle of the Petros lol

I mean, I already get their names mixed up all the time, now I'm going to have to mute the commentary when I watch it.

Imagine if it goes to a decision and the ref raises the wrong guy's hand.

This is the best name match after “Askar Askar vs Askar Askarov”
