02:19 PM ET 02.06 | Ricardo Lamas was far from happy to hear the news that Anthony Pettis was dropping down from lightweight and matched up as Jose Aldo's next opponent. "I'm just a little dumbfounded by the whole situation... I thought I already established I was the no. 1 contender. If Koch would have beaten me none of this would have happened," Lamas said.

Clearly Llamas hasn't been paying attention. It's not about earn in the UFC - it's about the whims of a madman (quoting the underrated movie Speed). I have no problem with a Pettis/Aldo fight - but please don't label it a superfight Pettis - because it isn't. Superfight combatants don't lose to lay n pray Guida.
