Anthony 'Showtime' Pettis is in the Matrix

Anthony 'Showtime' Pettis made history last night winning the WEC Lightweight title and his entry into the UFC.

Pettis who I first learned about watching a show called, 'The World of Jenks' on MTV. He is a young fighter from Wisconson, who has been through a lot but is still very humble and doesn't let where he came from change the way he is.

Here is what I am getting to, the awesome Matrix style kick that laid WEC Lightweight Champion on his back late in the 5th round to secure Pettis' strap and title fight in the UFC.

Even with other big fights going on around the country, including Zab Judah’s fight in Newark, NJ and Juan Manuel Lopez’s fight in Las Vegas, NV (both men, by the way, did win), many DC-area fight fans, as well as boxing champions Paul Williams, DeMarcus “Chop Chop” Corley, andf Harry Joe Yorgey, came to witness Jimmy Lange’s return to the Patriot Center and William Joppy’s quest for a 40^th career win.
