I'm picking Ben but surprised to see him as the favorite going in

Maia definitely has better striking but not better than Robbie or Jorge. Askren gets through it and they grapple.

This could be the end for Askren in the UFC if Maia wins.

Didn't watch, but I gotta go with Askren. I think his submission defense is good enough to grapple with Maia, but if anybody can sub him, it's definitely Maia. I wouldn't be surprised to see Askren tap or win a decision. I think this has the potential to be a great grappling match either way.

Don't know why they bother with Colby on these predictions, he just talks about himself or talks shit but I do enjoy these on a whole

I'm Hoping Maia went to the "Masvidal School of Knee"

Maia will grapplerape Askren. Askren has no tools standing up

Maia no longer has the cardio or agility he did when he fought Fitch and Shields (about 7 years ago). I think a younger Maia would have at least a 50/50 chance, but at this point Father Time and Askren will be too much for 41-year old Maia.

Askren will win and start trash talking again ...
