That was from tonight. Think he's saying he would've done more than Nate
Not true, he probably would have done better as he won before.
However bendo is on another level than last time they fought
He's next in line if he defeats Cowboy, I don't know why he's got something to say.
After Diaz put the beating on Cowboy, i was excited. But i'm still excited about Henderson vs Pettis 2
I think he was granted a title shot, but was told he had to wait until after the Edgar fight (and maybe someone else was in front of him), so he chose to take the fight with Guida.
With so many fighters waiting to take their guarantee title fights and backing up the division i glad pettis took that fight with clay. Some people thought pettis won that fight being more aggressive on his back in that fight.
Pettis will beat Henderson again..
RamsAllDay -Pettis will beat Henderson again..

Pettis didn't land enough to earn a decision in my opinion but Guida hardly proved he was the superior fighter.
Similar fight to Phil Davis/Lil Nog.
In these fights the loser in many ways looked far more impressive than the winner.
Yea i just remember Bas on inside MMA saying he thought Pettis won by going for submissions and being more aggressive. But he did lose but he did take a fight when he could've waited
RamsAllDay - Pettis will beat Henderson again..
Agreed...Pettis stand up is on another level. He's terribly difficult to sub, active off his back and very aggressive...it all comes down to his takedown defense imo
Edgar getting a totally undeserved rematch really screwed Pettis over (even though Edgar arguably won said rematch, I didn't think the first fight was rematch worthy at all, thought Bendo clearly won and most feel the same).
I favor Bendo over Pettis this time, though I think Pettis is stylistically his toughest challenge at 155 other than Frankie and perhaps Maynard.
Hopefully Pettis beats Cerrone, because I don't know how you give Cowboy a third shot, especially when Bendo completely dismantled him in minutes last time and Bendo has only improved since then. But if Cerrone wins, who else could get the shot...? Gil I guess maybe, he's the only guy I can think of.
HolyAvengerP5 - this is the same guy that lost to clay guida IN the ufc?
So did Nate. And Maynard came damn close to losing to Guida as well.
Also I don't really think either Clay or Pettis deserved a win in that fight. It was a draw in all honestly, and a not a good performance by either guy.
Pettis will KO benson
Pettiest via a war. And this coming from a huge fan of both. I pick Bendo over every other LW
Pettis vs Diaz? i bet Nate Diaz will take this as a disrespect and will talk his way into a match
just can't see pettis beating Hendo again at this point

If ever there was a fight where the guy on bottom position was winning the fight it was that fight imo.. pettis put on a guard clinic.. i really thought i might see a guy finally win a fight off his back but no, lay n pray prevails
Hasn't Pettis only won one UFC fight in its most stacked division? Why would he get a shot?

Isn't he on a two fight win streak now with Stephens and Lauzon?
