The move up to the bantamweight division seemed like the right thing to do for Pettis with UFC’s 125-pound weight class’ future put in question. But it was not an easy one, as he had to face a tough Rob Font who was ready to welcome him to his division. Fighting in Pettis’ territory, Rob made effective use of his long jabs and controlled the fight. The Roufusport fighter had very little to offer, as he got tagged multiple times and taken down. Rob put on a beautiful display of striking effectively utilizing the jabs up until the final seconds of the fight as Pettis was way behind the scorecard. A dominant win for the Boston native who picked up his second win of 2018.
