Things are starting to get heated between Josh Thomson and Anthony Pettis.
Thomson tweeted that he was hoping to get a fight against Pettis after speaking with UFC President Dana White, the two then agreed to fight via Twitter. Pettis would go on state in an interview with MMAFighting that he would fight Thomson “even though no one knows who he is.”
Seems as though Thomson took offence:
@Showtimepettis no reason to tell you who I am twice, I'll just remind you after I knock your ass out. #UFC166 pic.twitter.com/T0JsOkLJV3

To which Thomson replied:
@Showtimepettis careful, you won't see another title shot for years. Your own fans are telling you not to fight me. They're tryin to save u.
