Frankie was starting to get the timing down on countering the leg kicks so also stopped. should have still tried to mix it in. he usually starts his combos off of that leg kick. he should try ending combos with the leg kick.

Allistar is not overrated. When he was roided up he destroying fools,but as I said earlier in this thread, dude had something like 4x the amount of testosterone levels that a normal fighter should have when he failed the tests. Coming down from that , you will be lazy a f and unmotivated like a sommmabyttch.

if he needs the roids, doesn't that make him overrated? i never saw overeem as an overwhelming fighter until he started juicing.

footwork is something that a lot of fighters overlook. edgar probably has the best in the business.

Anthony Pettis texted Dana White after Aldo won it, telling Dana that he wanted to drop to featherweight and fight Aldo for the title, then move back up and fight the winner of Henderson/Melendez for the lightweight title.

Pettis definitely has the talent to do it, and it would be crazy to have a fighter defending two belts before he even hits his prime!! I'm already hearing that Dana White took Pettis on his offer and the fight might be scheduled on August 3

Looks like it's official!! Here is Dana on Pettis vs. Aldo:

Two of the baddest dudes in the fight business are going to fight at 145 pounds. These guys are two of the amazing, gravity-defying athletes in the sport. I am so pumped for this fight.

Can't wait for August 3!

Fwankie should transition to boxing. He only wins on points. Hardly ever enough power to KO someone (unless your name is Gray). I'm tired of his ass dancing around during fights and then his team lifting him high on their shoulders claiming victory when he clearly got his ass kicked.

He should fight an exhibition against Mayweather :P

Pettis annoys me for some reason, but dude is a fkn badass. Aldo better channel his inner WEC champ for this one.

I'm a big fan of both fighters, but I see Aldo winning that one. Then again, I didn't think Pettis could stand with Cerrone, who's a much bigger fighter at 155 with a ton more experience as a kickboxer.

i respect that, but the way they were talking about him during that episode sounded like he might hold back out because of guilt, doubt, etc..... we'll see if he can overcome that.

personally i think, if he doesn't win it, dana is gonna give him a contract regardless.
