Thompson was also off-balance and leaning backwards, making it difficult for him to roll with the punch
I noticed that, he was pulling his lead leg back after the side kick, and only had one leg on the ground and the other in the air against his standing leg.
It made me think his sideway stance actually screwed him over there, because he was to close to pettis to go back to it.

This is why novelty fights are a bad idea.

Pettis was clearly overmatched the whole fight, but this is MMA. Credit to Pettis, but it's clear he has no business at 170.

Now all we've got is a derailed contender and a guy who will get mauled the next fight he has at 170. The fight took the division backwards, not forwards.

This is why, Stephen Thompson, you don't take fights where you have NOTHING to gain against guys who desperately need to win.........
