    Yep I agree with JP, Bendo would take the rematch without a doubt IMO.

    Hmmm, even though Bendo has improved drastically since the Pettis loss, I could still see Pettis taking the rematch. I'd like to see Bendo win though.
    Scott Jorgensen is god! Best BW in the world!

    Makin' movies, makin' songs and fightin' round the world!

    Jon Jones for supreme overlord of the world!!!

    Top LW's in the world:

    #2 Michael Chandler
    #3 Benson Henderson
    #4 Rafael Dos Anjos
    #5 Abel Trujillo

    Chad Mendes 4 President!

    Thiago Alves = UFC WW Champion of 2014/15!!!

    Costa Philippou is a boss! ... And also, he looks like a Columbian drug lord :)

    If you think about it, Pettis and Bendo really are mirror fighters, only Pettis has the slight advantage in every aspect of the fight, but Bendo has the more relentless pace, and more determination.

    Gonna be a sick rematch... Makes me somewhat hope Edgar doesn't win so this fight can happen.

    Mate, I like Edgar and all, but he's being a ***** and doesn't even deserve a rematch, he clearly lost 4 rounds to 1. He shoulda taken Dana's offer and took an instant shot at Aldo. Would've been a ridiculously fast paced fight and potentially FOTY.

    Bendo is the far better wrestler and all around grappler. That would be the deciding factor in a rematch although I would be rooting for Pettis.

    If Bendo did lose to Pettis in his next couple of fights then the lightweight division will be becoming what the light-heavyweight division was before Jon Jones came along with the title changing hands every couple of fights.

    I mean I don't even think that Pettis has earned a title shot because he got wrestle-****ed by Guida, got a SD over Stephens and had one impressive win over Lauzon but none of those wins were against wrestlers which is the type of fighter that Pettis needs to prove he can beat before getting a title shot.

    Bendo would destroy Pettis now. He's improved too much since the fight.
    Exia will eliminate targets.

    Pettis has looked average in the UFC while Bendo has looked amazing. I'd go with Bendo at this point.

    Diaz vs. Pettis is like a wet dream to me. That fight would be honestly sick.

    Could go either way. Thus...

    We need to see this, i'm not convinced it too late to happen. Hit up dana's twitter, he'll crack under the pressure if enough people keep complaining. Would be a far better matchup then the frankie "crybaby" edgar rematch they got planned right now.

    do yourself a favor and watch the Pettis Highlight vid by Tor on youtube. It's basically a Pettis/Henderson hype vid as well.

    Henderson takes it imo
    “But in the end, the most important thing to accept, is that no matter how alone you feel, how painful it may be, with the help of those around you, you'll get through this too."

    Chael Sonnen will make Jon Jones look like the can that he is when he becomes the LHW Champion.
