Its a difficult question, but one that hunts me, which make it very difficult to wager in on pettis. To lay money on such a fragile entity as oliveira for 15 minutes, without getting finished against pettis, that doesnt sound like a very good bet, so ultimately a pass. I agree with you, i need that one pettis fight win to show me has more left, but then you will never get as good odds as now.
He's not that fragile.. Do Bronx has made it deep into the 3rd round in 3 of his last 6 fights.. Oliveira has also only been stopped 4 times in 26 pro fights. Look for yourself.http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Charles-Oliveira-30300
