At one point, he was the UFC Lightweight Champion, but Anthony ‘Showtime’ Pettis was unable to hold on to it and lost it to Rafael Dos Anjos. This triggered a number of losses and drop in form for him. Up to the loss to RDA, Pettis had only lost two times, but after it, he lost to Eddie Alvarez and Edson Barboza.
He is particularly famous for his Anthony Pettis kick, which is known for the level of damage it does to his opponents.
He somewhat recovered, with a win over Charles Oliveira. However, since then, he has lost alternatives fights against Max Holloway, Dustin Poirier, and Tony Ferguson. Anthony Pettis vs Tony Ferguson at UFC 229 was one of the best fights of the year, although it was overshadowed slightly by the controversy of the post-main event Conor McGregor vs Khabib Nurmagomedov clash.
In his last fight, Anthony Pettis defeated Stephen Thompson at UFC Fight Night 148: Thompson vs Pettis, and now, he is in line for a fight against Nate Diaz on the 17th of August at UFC 241, after a proposed fight against Conor McGregor did not work out.
