Anthony “Showtime” Pettis is an American mixed martial artist who competes as a lightweight. He was previously signed with World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) and defeated Ben Henderson to win the Lightweight Championship. Following the merger of the WEC with the UFC, Pettis was set to face the winner of the Edgar vs Maynard rematch to determine the new UFC Lightweight Champion, but since Edgar vs Maynard 2 ended in a draw, Pettis will probably have to wait until Edgar and Maynard face each other again.
