I mean it really shouldn't be a surprise that he couldn't make that weight cut in 6 days. The guy is a badass for even trying, but he was probably killing himself trying to do it.
Again, how is this shit still PPV as a business model. Hope tomorrow tanks and these geniuses come up with something more compelling. Whole thing feels like it's dying a slow death. Fucking sucks
Raging Al also campaigning for the fight. He is the highest ranked fighter (11th) coming off a win with Pettis ranked #12. Pettis lost to Poirier in November. Al has won 5 in a row.
they will start booking all the top 10 LWs on 1 card
i am not seeing where Pettis wanted more money,
(Karen Byrant was reporting on his money demands)
but Ariel reported NYSAC would only let Pettis fight 3 rounds
Also apparently NYSAC picked up the scale and took it, so Pettis couldn't weigh in again
