‘Showtime’ strikes again.
After struggling with Stephen Thompson’s striking for almost two entire rounds, Anthony Pettis finished the fight with one precise Superman punch that knocked ‘Wonderboy’ out cold in the final seconds of the second round at UFC Nashville. On Twitter, pro fighters enjoyed the fight.
Let’s go @Showtimepettis

Curious to see how this @WonderboyMMA – @Showtimepettis fight plays out. I think wonderboy wins but it will be interesting #UFC #UFCNashville

This fight is reminding me of #Bloodsport… #UFCNashville

IMO. After being in there with Wonderboy before and being a taekwondo stylist like pettis I think Pettis will have more success if he tries to use his fancy stuff instead of trying to box and bang with Thompson #UFCNashvile #UFC

Pettis’s defence (esp the left hand) is starting to drop, and Wonderboy has the sneaky, sneaky kick to the head he hides so well. #UFCNashville pic.twitter.com/Z4PHBbyimE

I’ll take care of Lee first then I’ll see you Pettis. Great win btw.

1 mistake is all it takes in there

Sometimes Mma makes no sense . Ol young Hercules Tyron Woodley couldn’t KO Thompson in 10 rounds and Mighty Mouse Pettis comes in and get it done . Awesome fight #UFCnashville
— Derek Brunson (@DerekBrunson) March 24, 2019
I can’t believe that just happened. I know Pettis is beast in the stand up department, but I felt Wonderboys size and striking would win it. This fight game is crazy. #UFCNashville
— Aljamain Sterling (@FunkMaster_UFC) March 24, 2019
I know everyone wants to challenge @TheNotoriousMMA , but I always thought him vs @Showtimepettis would be freaking awesome.
