Rafael is peaking and seems physically ready for 5 hard rounds. Has literally everything you could want in a fighter, wrestling jits kicks ko power durable and smart. He's dangerous for anyone and true deserving this shot with a quick turnaround. , learned invaluable lessons in Khabib fight as well making him stronger for it.
Voted for Anthony though, the kid just gets off. 25 minutes is a long time to give someone like Anthony to land or cinch something up. hard not to picture him finding a spot somewhere in there to end the fight... wouldn't be surprised to see hard fought 5 rounder though. Anthony better be dialled in.
It's fights like this why I watch this sport. no gimmicks here.

I know people will probably not want to hear it and he is my favorite fighter but if Pettis stops Dos Anjos I think he solidifies himself finally as the next LW BJ Penn with his dominance and skill set

Skill set maybe.. But let's let him get more than two defenses and at lest tie BJ and Benson for defenses. He also needs to stay healthy to start comparing him to BJ.

yea but he is finishing people that have never been finished, Bendo and Gil, I love Bendo but as many wins as he rolled off they were all decisions and some controversial

This is true, and I'm not saying Pettis isn't great.. But it's been two title fights. BJ went undefeated at LW for a long time, and was also destroying guys.
I'm just not one to say.. "So and so is the next..." BJ Penn was BJ Penn and Pettis is Pettis. BJ did a lot more then just be champ.

If he beats Khabib too then I will agree totally

Always following that lil head. I knew you had a man crush for Peter Pettis
Can't blame you. He is #1p4p at man-scaping

Pettis is just too pretty, both inside and outside the octagon. RDA definitely deserves the chance to make me eat my words though and he's a dangerous opponent without a doubt. Either way,This fight will be fantastic me thinks
