Kevin Lee vs Anthony Pettis

[nick jacoby]

This has got to be the next fight for both of them IMO

Pettis has a weakness vs wrestlers but he also has a good shot at finding Kevins chin

Who would ya pick?

Sherdog wants Pettis vs Ragin Al... But i'd rather see Lee vs Pettis and Gaethje vs Ragin Al

This is a pretty good fight. If I had to pick Kevin Lee by UD.

 

[Fatback96]

Kevin via wrestling. Unless he gets tired.

I would say that would be the most likely outcome for sure. BUT its a good name for Lee to put on his record and also a winnable fight for Pettis

 

[Orochimaru 大蛇丸]

Lee would murk him

 

[mime]

Pettis would prob lose again, he always loses to these top guys, give him a break with someone easier

Pettis bjj holds up the GNP.

4th/5th comes around and Pettis kicks Lee's head to Bolivia

Wouldnt be surpised if Lee tries to out-kick him. Lmao

You think? tough fight for him though. Besides Khabib I can't think of a tougher matchup in the division for him right now.. (besides opponents he's already faced)

 

[Soul On Ice]

Kevin Lee can't be trusted after that performance

Showtime KO

 

[nick jacoby]

I cant pick Pettis over any top guys tbh

come on brah

 

[AJ Garcia]

Pettis would sub him off his back.

 

[Gluhov]

Why would we want to see pettis vs a powerful wrestler? Pettis doesn't even have the cardio anymore to outlast lee.

 

[King in the North]

Lee would mess him up. Everyone knows how to beat Pettis in 2018 (thanks Clay Guida) and Lee has the perfect style to do so.

His cardio looked amazing against Barboza when he wasn’t constantly seeking the RNC and just smothering/hurting him. I suspect he would do the same to Pettis.

Although Pettis has really good submissions out of his guard. He would have a shot but I would favor Lee.

 

[Lay N Pray 101]

Good fight, I think Lee will make Pettis quit.

 

[mungos]

I don't like Pettis - overrated.

 

[Gambit MMA]

Pettis doesn’t have the power in his punches to ko Kevin. So a big kick would be needed, which plays into lees wrestling. Feel like it would go just like the barboza fight with pettis being more active on the bottom with submission attempts

 

[CombatScience]

Lee has horrible stand up...on par with Jake Shields, he is physically very strong though, the fight can go either way.

 

[2EZ]

Pettis has even less heart than Lee

 

[Huligani]

Lee destroys Pettis

 

[Grapplefest]

Lee wins this easily. Pettis is nowhere near as good as Iaquinta. Lee should get smashed by Makhachev for his next fight.
