Looks like Pettis stopped Benson Henderson with a tight armbar. Thats amazing technique considering all that afro sheen in Bens hair leaks to his shoulders and makes him slippery as hell. There wont be many title defenses going 5 rounds like all of Bens fights Anthony Pettis is a finisher.
Glad to see Josh Barnett drop Frank Mir with some nasty clinch work.

Pettis is a beast. I never liked Bendo, thought he lost to both Frankie and Melendez.

Mir stoppage was just one or two hammerfists early for my preference, but Josh looked as good as I've seen him & hopefully this win paves the way for some interesting fights for him in the UFC HW division (eg. Travis Browne, perhaps Bigfoot Silva).
Pettis looked great standing but phenomenal on the ground. I'm a longtime Duke Roufus fan. Good win for a great camp.

That's my boy!!!! He did pop his knee in the fight though, hopefully it's not too serious.

Real happy to see Pettis get the belt and **** up Henderson in the process.
I like Mir but I knew he was going to lose this one. The second his back touched the cage I knew his night was over. He's good enough at jits to give it up for a bit and learn how to ****ing wrastle
