10. Sergio Pettis vs. Matt Hobar
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Di5q17TkO7c Weight Class: Bantamweight Sergio Pettis (111) has the right last name, as his elder brother is lightweight champion in the UFC, but by no means has he been rushed to stardom by the promotion to cash in on that name, nor is he riding on his brother's coat tails. No, the younger Pettis brother has been brought along at a calculated pace, allowing him to develop, and his lone loss came in a Fight of the Night effort against Bruce Leeroy himself, Alex Caceres. Coming off a win over Yaotzin Meza, Pettis takes on Matt "The Crowbar" Hobar (9-2), who is 1-1 in the UFC and a Legacy vet. Hobar was a champion in Legacy, so he's no slouch, and represents a solid test for Pettis. That said, Pettis, who has a lot of upside if the UFC continues to develop him at the right pace, is the better fighter. Look for him to take a decision win.
