Sergio Pettis may not be thought of as a KO artist, but there’s never a bad time to start.
The younger Pettis brother stunned the MMA world on Friday night by starching RIZIN bantamweight champion with a fourth-round spinning back fist in the main event of Bellator 272. Pettis was getting dominated in the bout and was just minutes away from being down four rounds to zero to Horiguchi before pulling off one of the wildest comebacks of 2021.
Check out how the pros reacted to Pettis’ highlight-reel defense of his Bellator bantamweight title below.
Holy shit what a fight, what a finish. Duke’s pep talk between rounds and him going out and doing that is what movies are made of, congrats Champ @sergiopettis!!!! #Bellator272

RIZINのバンタム級王者、堀口恭司。
たとえ散っても、我らが王者を誇りに思います。
恭司なら再び立ち上がり、また咲き誇る姿を見せてくれるに違いありません。 pic.twitter.com/Bpy9W8LgTV— NOBUYUKI SAKAKIBARA (@nobu_sakakibara) December 4, 2021
