On the day Anthony Pettis signed with the PFL, he immediately became one of the most recognizable names on the entire roster.
As a former UFC lightweight champion, who has headlined pay-per-views and events airing on network television for the past decade, he has a household name with fight fans. Pettis commanded attention whenever he fought and he knows that’s going to remain the case now that he’s competing for a different promotion for the first time since the UFC absorbed the WEC back in 2010.
While some fighters shy away from the spotlight, Pettis has always embraced it and he has no problem that the PFL will be relying on him to serve as one of the faces of the organization.
