Henderson vs Pettis armbar

Perfect timing, just like Vitor/Jones except Pettis closed the deal

Pettis got that armbar by destroying Bens spleen. Yikes.

That's actually a really good point that is easy to overlook. Those body shots were crushing and clearly had Henderson slowed down. He thought he was safe enough inside the guard to relax for a moment but Pettis was still charging forward.

Gilbert has some work to do to get a shot at Pettis IMO.

I thought he beat Bendo in there fight, and he will run thru Diego Sanchez

Gibert is just a more talented version of Diego Sanchez. I don't see anywhere he can beat him.

Depends what Diego turns up I guess. If its the bat shit crazy 'nightmare' Diego then he is tough to beat. The 'dream' version Gilbert will destroy with ease.

He calls himself the dream now because he has to be alseep to believe in it. He needs to be the nightmare,
Zero fucks were gave when he would like the the nightmare. This identity crisis shit isn't helping. Doesn't help he beat Takonori Gomi by losing to Takonori Gomi. Also missing weight.

What I took away from that armbar was the precise timing of Pettis to control the wrist when Bendo posted on that right arm and feel the exact milli-second when his weight shifted so he could deliver the entire arm to the opposite shoulder and lock it in DEEP. When I saw those legs clamp down, I was like "Oh shit, he's got this, but wait it's Bedno he'll just...wait, no...dang...burn." Expertly executed basic technique with finely honed details(keeping the thumb up to target the elbow). Fear the Guard.
