This past Saturday’s UFC 125 event was the just second live UFC show Anthony Pettis attended as a civilian, and its outcome was supposed to determine his future.
But it didn’t end the way that he or anyone else anticipated.
Pettis thought UFC lightweight champ Frankie Edgar defeated Gray Maynard, but the judges didn’t and issued a draw. Now facing a possible long layoff because of the rematch, his trainer, Duke Roufus, today told MMAjunkie.com that Pettis may spend the time off training with Bellator champ and Olympic wrestler Ben Askren.
