*Maia Vs Askren: Who's gonna win that grappling match?*

[Seiryoku Zenyo]

Both guys got really poor striking and a good chin. Definitely there's not gonna be a KO. So, Askren's wrestling or Maia's BJJ?

How would this fight end? Boring decision?

If Askren can’t beat Maia in 2019 then he should be cut.

 

[Sweater of AV]

K1-Maia picks up where Jorge left off.

 

[CrimsonFan]

Its probably gonna be boring. Askren wins if he doesnt get subbed because mma judging favors top control. And thats where he will be

 

[Orochimaru 大蛇丸]

Askren is a better wrestler than Usman, and Colby so what do you think?

 

[Sausage_Carius]

Maia's fist is going to accidentally connect flush with Askren's chin and send him packing. He will even apologize to him for it.

 

[DabraKajitsu]

Going with Askren because Wrestler's Overhand.

Plus Askren has some pretty nasty power!

 

[dildos]

maia will ko askren with a flying knee.

 

[Human Bass]

Askren, much better control on transitions and way better cardio.

Maia striking is lightyears ahead of Askren. I would not say "there is not going to be a KO/TKO". Its MMA anything is possible. That is what makes this potentially boring fight interesting. . . . we dont know what will happen

He's a far worse MMA wrestler than both and those guys only used their wrestling to keep it on the feet.

Askren is a lot worse striker than Maia so he'll be forced to take it to the ground, into Maia's comfort zone and get submitted.

 

[jsbx45]

I love Maia but I think Askren takes this one.

 

[mkt]

2012 Maia (the one who beat Fitch) wins. Current Maia is too old, slow and lacks the cardio.

When it was the last time got a sub from guard?

Askren is a way better wrestler than Colby, who fails to hold his opponents down.

 

[Satan's Daddy.]

If Askren last longer than 5 seconds again, you can consider me impressed.

 

[RVCA]

Askren is a way better wrestler than Colby, who fails to hold his opponents down.

Couldn't even take down Luis Santos lmao

 

[Human Bass]

Couldn't even take down Luis Santos lmao

And dominated Douglas Lima start to finish. Being a hater will only make you look like a tarde post fight.

 

[WhoWalksWithFergus]

Maia loses to every top level wrestler he faces, plus he's old as fuck. I truly want him to knock Askren out, but I think they're giving Ben this fight to get him a real win over a real competitor.
