The birth of the showtime kick. Movie stuff. That moment alone probably put Anthony Pettis on so many people's favorite fighters list. I imagine it turned alot of non Mma fans into fans and probably still does

He also doesn't get the credit for revolutionizin leg kicks targeting the calf no one was throwing calf kicks until Ben utilized it against Frankie and their fights to neutralize Frankie's movement and it still took some time for folks to start adding it to their skill set now it's as common a technique as an overhand

Again, YOU SAID THIS. *lol* I just simply stated the facts and those ARE THE FACTS; whether you like them or not, is totally irrelevant to the fact that Nathan Diaz absolutely *BEAT THE PISS* outta the Wheatie Box dude, and Nate hadn't fought in any cage for OVER THREE YEARS until he faced Pettis.

I still to this day believe if that kick didn’t land, Bendo would have got the nod. One of my all time favorite fights and so many people missed this live.

@madgavin7568 5 месяцев назад

I dunno about that. Pettis was landing the better strikes in that round before the kick. The kick if anything, put the stamp on Pettis' victory rather than it coming down to a possible split decision.

He's washed now but in his prime he was as elite as it gets. Even after he lost the belt, he could still be a tough-out. He should have retired after beating Alex Morono whom the UFC set him up to fail against.
