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.
