Our first guest this week is a Phenom. Sergio Pettis is stopping back in the shop and the last time we talked to him he was stepping into the cage with Jimmy Jones for RFA. Sergio was set to step back in the cage for RFA but injury has forced his fight to be taken off the card. The good news is the phenom is still stepping in the cage and now he’s doing it for North American Fighting Championship in Milwaukee, WI. We will talk to Sergio about the switch in cards, getting a chance to fight in front of the hometown crowd, and of course having his opponents change in such a short time. Sergio is always a great guest and we have plenty to talk about but before he joins the show get over to twitter and follow the Phenom @SergioPettis

UFC bantamweight Roland Delorme (8-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) will be fighting in his hometown this June, as it was announced yesterday that he will meet fellow 135-pounder Edwin Figueroa (9-2 MMA, 2-2 UFC) at UFC 161 in Winnipeg. The bout with Figueroa will mark Delorme’s first fight in 11 months. Roland’s most recent effort came at UFC 149 in July of 2012, where he suffered a KO loss to Francisco Rivera. However, that fight was overturned to a no-contest after Rivera failed his post-fight drug test.
