Maia is a PPV nightmare. He takes you down and makes you tap which equals ZZZZZZZZZZZZ for everyone watching. Such a boring fighter. Like watching a boxer play keep away the entire fight and win.


what? how is watching him sub someone like that any less exciting than watching someone get knocked out? that was fricking crazy how easy he made work of one of the best fighters in the ufc. him vs wonderboy would be a matchup of opposites

Let's not kid ourselves, Maia can be extremely boring. Last nights fight wasn't overly exciting. It was like watching a python eat a jungle pig. Impressive but lacked excitement

I like the ground game as much as the stand up.

What I dislike is the clench against the cage stall game.

coming from a wrestling background I even like catch-as-catch can, it's old-school and pure.

I think a throwback county fair barnstorming tour would actually draw good crowds.

It'd be hilarious to have a show w/ Josh Barnett, Ian McCall and maybe a Benson Henderson or Johny Hendricks going across the midwest taking on all comers at county and state fairs.

I definitely like stand-up striking better than grappling in mma, but how can you not appreciate when a guy is that much better than anyone else in the world when it comes to mma grappling. Dude is on another level, pretty cool to watch.

Well to be fair, a monkey can make fight matches. Silva also got a shite load of money from the sale.

Maybe the new guy will actually make Jones earn a title shot
