PFL lightweight Stevie Ray admits his upcoming fight against former UFC champion Anthony Pettis is the biggest of his 12-year MMA career.
Ray is looking to pick up his first win of this year's 2022 PFL season next Friday in Atlanta when he faces Pettis, who scored six points for his submission win over Myles Price in the opening round of the competition. Ray lost his fight to Alexander Martinez in April by decision.
Pettis spent almost 10 years fighting in the UFC and won the lightweight title during that run, defending it once before losing the belt to Rafael Dos Anjos. 'Showtime' moved around weight classes and holds wins over current UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira and top welterweight Stephen Thompson.
