- The UFC’s Twitter strikes again. The world’s largest mixed martial
arts promotion announced yet another thrilling lightweight shootout to their UFC 136 roster. Late Saturday evening, Anthony Pettis vs. Jeremy Stephens has been added to their October 8th show inside the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. Pettis owns an impressive 13-2 record, but dropped his UFC debut against Clay Guida last month at “The Ultimate Fighter 13 Finale.” Prior to the unanimous decision loss, he captivated the MMA world with his unforgettable ‘Showtime Kick’ on Ben Henderson to capture the WEC title. Stephens owns a 20-6 resume and has rattled off two consecutive victories inside the Octagon. “Lil Heathen” was last seen beating Daniel Downes in the same ‘TUF 13 Finale’ card. “Well, it’s been released! Fighting at UFC 136 in Houston, TX (Oct 8th) against Anthony Pettis! I like Showtime, but it’ll be a great fight!” Stephens tweeted. Because of the awesomeness of the card, it’s likely their 155-pound shootout will appear in the preliminary portion of the festivities. Don’t fret, fanboys. It’s highly likely Facebook and/or Spike TV will step in to save the day. 5th Round Just a ton of good fights being announced in the last few days! This one will no doubt be fireworks! Im hoping Pettis can put together a few more wins, and eventually challenge for the strap. But he has gotta work that TDD hard! | |

| I think Pettis will overwhelm Stephens from a technical standpoint as well, and that's what will make it such a barn burner. Stephens goes out swinging for the moon. | |
