in a modified twister in the second round of their PFL regular season bout on June 24, “Showtime” had a difficult decision to make.
On one hand, he could fight to escape the submission and risk injury — as well as his spot in the playoffs. One the other hand, he could tap and save himself from further damage.“In that fight, I had to make a decision to let the rib pop or tap out before I got to that point,” Pettis said during a PFL media day.
As fate would have it, the submission victory secured Ray a rematch with Pettis in the lightweight semifinals. The bout will serve as the main event for“The rib feels good,” Pettis said. “Training camp we changed the mindset a little bit. Last fight I was point sparring him, I was just trying to survive and not get hurt. Wrong mindset going into these fights. This one is a must win.”
