Pettis is gonna be back in great shape.

He is a gatekeeper, and never rising to the top again. He is not tough enough, doesn't have heart like the above poster pointed out. The only thing that Pettis has left is his name. Wonderboy fight was a good win, but it was a fortuitous punch in many respects and that happens in mma, he was getting and would have been continued to get pieced up otherwise.

seriously? cmon bro i want to see it.

I just spent like an hour in her insta tryna find it it was form like 2018 im pretty sure she's deleted it I wanted to show you guys as proof. Cuase I thought she was od bad until I saw that she belonged to the streets

He has the same long-term career issue as JDS, can't deal with pressure and can't stay off the cage.

I think Pettis' biggest problem is his heart. He tends to melt when things get tough. good luck to him tho.

the Alistair Overeem thing.

People used to say its cardio but I literally watched fights of him in Pride where he would BEAT on people for 10-15 minutes straight and not even breathe heavy.

He's just a front runner, when he's in his comfort zone and the fight is going the way he thinks, he does great. When it doesn't, he crumbles.

I don't think there's a single fight where he's faced some serious adversity and come back to win in the last few years. Do Bronx fight is maybe the closest.

Seems like it's more confidence. He has heart just seems to lose confidence (I mean he took a pretty good beating to land the shots he needed to (leg and body kicks) on WB till he got the knockout).

He was a terror until he ran into RDA - that is the fight where he was never the same afterwards.

i hope hedoes well. i was always a fan.

he put on amazing fights. just couldn't overcome blanket type fighters like guida.

he needs space to perform well, doesn't do well against fighters with relentless pressure

 

[Kaiokenrye24]

He had a couple fights where he looked out of shape but this is his lowest profile fight in years

 

[Thepaintbucket]

That ship has sailed. It was pretty evident in his fight with Tony and Nate.

Pettis needs to get back on whatever it was when he went on a tear to get the title. That pettis had some crazy kickboxing I mean he still does but it’s not the same
