“showtime doesnt have wrestling or nice leg punching technique, nate would light his ass up. and if he miraculously did get a gift decision v nate, at least he would have one well deserved top lw win in the ufc and i wouldnt be so against his leap frogging in the division. and dont pretend like the ufc doesnt scratch set fights when they want to set up a more marketable fight, the do it all the damned time. the reason theyre not doing it for pettis obviously is because a) they dont think hes marketable and
b) because they dont think he deserves it.”

Your right. Instead Showtime has the most dynamic striking in the sport right there with Jose Aldo. Nate would get obliterated. You sound so scared for Aldo it's hilarious. Since when do you not want to see superfights with 2 of the best strikers in the sport go at it? Don't be scared homie.

“kz deserves a shot more so than pettis though imo.”

Maybe like one year ago. He hasn't fought in forever. Plus Poirer is overrated.

I think if they fight, Anthony will knock Aldo out. ~Bob'O

“Really, you guys think Jose Aldo is scared of anyone?”

Yes.

He said if they make the fight hell take it.

Well.. they made it and he is refusing to take it.

I can understand Aldo's view.. Pettis has never fought at FW, then emails Dana for a fight with Aldo, and gets it.. Whats the purpose of having rankings if you arent going to use them? Aldo fought Frankie, and now has to fight Pettis for the FW title.. two guys who never fought at 145 in their careers.. And guys like Swanson and Lamas are getting screwed over.. But from the business point, Aldo/Pettis will prob sell more PPV. And we all know Dana cant pass that up. lolz!
