It's gonna be bittersweet when Pettis puts him down, on one hand Pettis' reign of dominance continues on the other hand, Cowboy's getting KO'ed. ;/

Love the match up. I'm with the upset of Cerrone winning it. His fundamentals since the Diaz loss have been so much improved. I see him beating everyone except Diaz right now, and even that fight would scare me as a Diaz fan.

Pettis is one the best strikers in all of MMA. Cerrone is a great kickboxer with sound technique but Pettis generally for me can outpoint Cerrone everytime.

I think Pettis tries a little too much. To me he is more flashy while Cerrone is slightly more technically sound. I think Pettis might be able to beat him to the punch everytime, but Cerrone is such a solid stand up fighter now that he'd be able to get around Pettis' speed and get some shots off of his own in a complete war of a fight.

I love how Pettis is going to KO Cerrone....who has never been knocked out. Also Between Pettis and Cerrone both only have two KO/ TKO's a piece from WEC or UFC fights. Facts are hard. ;-)

Yes its hard to see a striking stoppage, both guys are too versed in kickboxing to get finished standing. On the ground perhaps we may see a stoppage.
Pettis is still the better striker for me and will outpoint Cerrone in the striking aspect.

reign of dominance?
He is 2-1 in the Ufc, got out-wrestled by Guida, won a split decision against Jeremy Stephens?? and then Ko'd Joe Lauzon (who is as hot and cold as them come)
Besides beating Bendo in the WEC has had he been dominate?? I hope Cerrone uses those awesome leg chops to break him down and then his length for top control..
