Does anyone see Anthony Pettis struggling this weekend?

[xhaydenx]

Pretty much did for 2 rounds then McKee was finding nice body shots but too late

Yeah, but, bruz, a couple of nice body shots isn't a war, and if it was then it was a seriously one-side one.

 

[Jose Beehive]

I always see Pettis struggling now a days, that CDF fight was disturbingly shit from him, I can't see the Donald win giving him a huge kick up the arse.

 

[TheHermit]

pettis' decline is at hand [if it isn't already here] but that doesn't mean he loses to morono. should be fairly easy.

Yeah i know, the other guy said it was a war.

 

[SaigeVanZant]

Morono is a bum.

When was the last time Pettis didn't struggle against an opponent ? Very winnable fight for him though.

Maybe the first Cerrone fight? Actually he didn't much trouble with Bendo in the rematch...for some reason he matched up really well with him. Nor did he have too much trouble with Gilbert Melendez. But that was 2014. Since then he hasn't had an easy fight.

Against Alex Morono. Fair step down in competition but it’s not as if Morono is a complete bum. Pettis clear decision for me but just curious what you think?

Morono is going to be noticably bigger.

Doesn't mean he will win, but it's a guy who used to fight at lightweight vs one who fought at middle.

Easy win for Pettis. Easy sub win somewhere in round 2.

 

[The_Renaissance]

Nah, he won't run through him but he won't ever be in trouble either. Either a lopsided UD or a submission later in the fight I reckon.

 

[Morris88]

WTF?! Williams is the underdog against Pereira? Can I have some of what the odd makers are smoking??

Crazy isn't it, a guy who has won 8 straight and is 11-1 against a dude with 11 losses and one decent UFC performance to date

 

[DOMMA]

Wait... Is Pettis actually going BACK to 170 for this fight??

I believe so, Morono has fought his entire career at 170.

 

[Maripucci]

What did I miss how did Pettis get sent to the prelims?

Have you seen his record lately??
Pettis pretty much has 1 win for every 3 losses since 2015 it is a wonder he is still in the UFC

 

[kekiss]

Very unlikely to someone like Pettis who’s fought nothing but top guys to loose a bum like Morono, but will see, Pettis is very hot and cold type of a guy, gets smashed by Tony, KO’s Wonderboy next

Not really. Pettis is still pretty damn good. That said I don't know a whole lot about Morono.

Morono had a fun fight with Niko Price a while back, but got wrecked in 30 seconds by Khaos Williams, who just did the same to Abdul Razak Alhassan.

Pettis ought to win handily but Morono is usually a game and fan friendly opponent.

I missed the Ferreira and Diaz fights.

Hard to stay hungry. I hope he comes focused or your right he might be getting cut.

Sounds like the kind of guys Pettis should be fighting. I still can't believe he trucked Thompson like that.

 

[Givvee]

Morono is not good, Pettis should win this one easily. First round knockout.

 

[Moeshaak Hammer]

Weird. I remember him basically battering Mckee with ease.

it was a shit fight
