Benson's style and cardio is keeping him from getting into real trouble.

Any of the guys who go straight and get tired at WW are going to get fucking clobbered by Thatch.

I'm working that right hand to the body and my round house kicks and trips after watching this in training tomorrow.

Wow, loving this fight! Has an old school open-weight feel to it with the size difference.

I think the fight could be 1 round each at this point. Benson looks like he could be wearing down a little.

Is this a 5 rounder?

If Benson can keep it even here I think he'll be in decent shape for 4-5.

Benson is huge at LW. Moving up to WW he's small.
Yea seems like they need to add another weight class between them. I dont really like the idea of adding a bunch of weight classes but seems like its needed. Diego Sanchez is a guy that didnt really fit into either class. He seemed to drained at 155 and too small for 170.

He tried to get up in a bad way, that's fight experience. Ben's experience got him this, I was afraid of this.

Thatch flows nicely from punches, kicks, to trips, sprawl.
I like how he keeps switching from southpaw to rightie constantly.

Thatch is rocking one of the worst hair cuts I've ever seen

And that's saying a lot considering past haicuts he has rocked in the past

Ever since Conor did this weird thing with the slicked back braids and mini bun (for whatever reason), I've seen so many UFC guys copy him and do it too. It's lame as fuck, but Thatch's just looks strange with the 2-3 raggedy braid strands hanging like 2 inches off the top of the back of his head

Worst style ever. I thought those 1 side shaved, Skrillex style haircuts that everyone was rocking in 2012 (like Ian McCall and those guys) were weird/bad, but this new short hair braiding with a raggedy bun/mini pony tail is just about the stupidest thing I've ever laid eyes on

And ths is coming from someone who takes no notice of haircuts/styles. But man the mismatched outfits Pettis wears and these weird hair styles are enough to make me root against these guys every time
