It feels like Petrino is the prospect coming in with a lot more momentum. Turkalj was extremely disappointing in his debut and did not look competitive. Petrino has some holes in his game, but he makes up for them with tenacity and aggressiveness. Turkalj might be fighting to remain on contract in the UFC, while Petrino looks like a guy that could have some staying power. He will win this fight by stoppage.
