Is this fake news or it has been announced and I didn't see? (Pettis vs Tony at UFC 230)

[Wicked_1]

Fake as fuk. Tony just got cleared to train, he wont fight a non title or int title fight if he has any brains at all.

I think it'd be a good fight and would definitely keep Tony fresh. Big upside obviously for Pettis he's been bouncing around for a bit. Its hard to remember he choked out Melendez and armbarred Bendo not so long ago.

In the mma world 5 years is a long time. Nobody will appreciate Pettis anymore but he was all about putting on a show as a champion.

That "I'm the champ so it's my duty to entertain the fans." Type mentally that I love. Lawler had it as well.

 

[GODZILLA213]

I thought Jones vs Cain was the headliner

 

[Tuf_guy]

That would've been terrible matchmaking. Pettis shouldn't be seeing any top fighters without a legit win streak going.

 

[Carniusss]

Anyone remember outside hammer?

Did he just quit posting?

 

[MRT]

When was the last time a non-title fight headlined a PPV?

Both Conor-Nate fights...Anderson-Nick...but yeah, not many.

 

[Flex Plexico]

Megan Anderson vs Eddie Wineland @145 has also been announced

Anyone remember outside hammer?

The sherdogger that actually did have an inside source

It wouldn't surprise me if Dana said "we never stripped Ferguson hes defending his interm belt here."

But obviously this is all fake.

Did he just quit posting?

He showed up a few times. That was way over 5 years ago. He just vanish

And a dandy source at that. Maybe dana find him and convince him to "retire".

it was pretty long ago lol. But still he looked good against chiesa. War Pettis

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Tony by domination if its real

 

[Matthew Fedler]

I actually want to see Pettis vs. Ferguson. That sounds like it could be a ton of fun.

UFC on FOX: Milwaukee in December

 

[TheLastEmperorReurns]

Great fight.

Tony chokes out Pettis from Pettis wilting like a flower whenever he's getting his shit pushed in.

 

[NotoriousMillions]

Pretty sure it's fake news but I was just browsing the Wikipedia page :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFC_230
"Anthony Pettis vs. Tony Ferguson is scheduled to headline the main event."

Have I been hiding under a rock, or some Sherbro edited the Wiki page?

This is the fight I've been wanting, so I hope so.

 

[LittleSmokey]

Pettis is a beat up old dog.

 

[Monkeymonkeymonkey]

Tony should fight tj grant. Pettis could fight bj

That was 5 years and 5 losses ago and neither bendo or Gil are doing too great these days
