Yeah you bring up another interesting aspect of this fight. Barboza has been relentlessly pressured in his last two losses, seemingly exploiting the strategy to beat him, but Pettis obviously isn't gonna do that. And of course same goes for Anthony, pretty obvious after the Alvarez fight he hasn't improved much at all with his ringcraft when he gets pressured. Dude just backs straight up to the fence. Even in the fights hes won hes done this, but Barboza is most certainly not going to do this. Such an intriguing fight, good by the UFC giving us this.
Just realized another thing that scares me as a Barb backer is level of competition. Beating Bendo and Melendez is just a bit more impressive than beating Bobby Green
