I want showtime via KO.
But we'll probably get Benson via smothering wrestlefukk.
Bendo doesn't want to stand with Pettis and risk having his face kicked off again in more highlight videos. And after Pettis vs Guida it's clear that the only way to make Pettis look average is by smother wrestling.
I hope Pettis can work on his wrestling. Edgar was getting takedowns on Bendo and surprisingly it kept Bendo from his usual agressive smothering style. If Pettis can get him in that mode it's a good chance he can keep it standing. I doubt it doe
And UFC judges luh them some takedowns
Smothering wrestlefukk? Bendo thoroughly dominates and puts a brutal beating on his opponents. I wouldn't call that smoothering wrestlefukk.
Like the first fight, I think it's going to be a close encounter. Bendo's strength and wrestling gives him an overall edge in the fight. Like he always does, Bendo will look to mix it up and keep Pettis on his toes. Unfortunately, I think Pettis will be hesitent to throw his kicks because of the threat of a takedown.

Yeah I understand that much. Problem with that is it sometimes leaves you open for submissions from good BJJ guys. Which is what Pettis is.
Basically Bendo can focus on control instead of "beating up" like Guida did and pull out a W. But then again that type of p*ssy fighting aint really his style anyway.

Nate Diaz is better off his back [better BJJ in general than Pettis] and he wasn't able to do anything on the ground. Bendo is a VERY VERY tough fighter to submit.
, hope they make it happen

Rampage man 
He needs to be re-trained and realize that this isnt ufc/pride mediocre/brawler fighter era. These new guys are trained in take downs, submission and wrestling. He cant even throw a fukking kick or perform a take down
and him getting tired 
I mad as fukk he got ricky hatton old trainer to train him in boxing. Its not even about his age anymore. Its about the fact, he isnt a well all around fighter. Might be too late now. Sad he being exposed like this, but you can power bomb and punch ya way out of every fight

IMO I just think that Rampage's time has passed, he's nearing the end of his career. I don't think it has as much to do with his training or his style. This eventual decline can be seen amongst pretty much all the pride legends [Shogun, Wandy, Cro Cop, etc.]. No amount of training/hard work/style change will bring Rampage back to the top.
you right, though. I never wanna shyt on a fighter cause of age but your right
