Dana needs to cut bait with Maia

[itz reggie]

Maia’s fights look horrible when he’s unable to take it to ground. This was almost worse than when he fought Silva.

 

[XamcX]

I think Dana will cut him after this loss.
Fitch vs Maia up next

 

[WendalClark17]

I agree. The cherry on top for Dana would be to see Maia go to Bellator and clown those chumps, just to show how bad the Bellator WW division is

 

[shunK-1fan]

He's still top ten easy.
.

This division is terrible then

 

[Malik Andre]

if you want to cut demian you have to cut usman too

Usman didn't lose.

 

[GordaoPreguico]

Yes cut the guy who helped save a card by taking a short notice fight.

 

[justblaze717]

Why? Maia was the one who forced most of the action. Usman never went for the kill.

Stop blaming Maia for his opponents avoidance gameplans. Silva, Woodley, and Usman all fought like cowards because they didn't have confidence in the rest of their game.

What fight were you watching? Usman chased him around the ring all night, Maia was running away at some points...

 

[DeeDubb]

Maia is the last remaining elite one-dimensional fighter (except maybe Khabib??). The only thing that he's good at he happens to be extremely good at. He can still submit anyone on any given day, but he's essentially like a boxer with only a punchers chance. He has a RNC chance in any fight.

Know who the common factor is in the Silva/Woodley/Usman fights? Maia is.

Maia has had all these stinkers because he's refused to expand on his MMA game and just sticks to BJJ, which is fine, but don't act like it's everyones fault but his that they don't engage him on the ground.

Look at Werdum, a guy who when he started was just pure BJJ but then decided to incorporate a lot more Muay Thai into his game and he has a KO win over Mark fucking Hunt now

If you want to fight on the ground it's on you to get it there, flopping to your back and basically begging your opponent to get on top of you is nobodies fault but your own.

 

[PokerMage]

Jesus he isnt gonna cut a vet who took a fight on 4 weeks notice to save there first card in Chile.

 

[Mikeyz]

U mean... A BJJ dude needs to get the fight to the...ground?...

Lol. What are you talking about?

Obviously that's what a BJJ fighter would try to do. I am just saying his stand-up and TD technics are really bad.

hes not even bellator good

How dare you use logic on Sherdog! Lol
