Lawler va Maia favorite?

[BjPenn2016FW]

I am not counting out T-woodley but. i expect Robbie to thrash him at Ufc 201.

After that I am praying for a Maia/Lawler matchup. Do you think Robbie would
be the betting favorite or Demian?

 

[Huligani]

Robbie would indeed be the favorite. Also if Wonderboy wins, he gets the title shot before Maia like it or not. I wonder how Lawler vs Wonderboy odds would be... I favor Wonderboy in that fight.

Of course Robbie would be the betting favorite, his TDD is legit, his striking is on another level and he punches really hard too. Demian Maia's worst nightmare.

 

[Rygu]

Maia would be like a 3:1 underdog

I would bet on Maia via submission but I think Lawler takes it. I don't think I could enjoy watching 2 of my favs fighting each other.

I'd bet Maia. His trip-takedowns Are really good, And very different to defend than other TDS. Should be good odds.

But if Robbie keeps distance And defends, it will be a late KO.

Robbie would smash Maia. Maia might smother him for a round or two, but he doesn't have the gas tank for 5 rounds against robbie. It would look something like Maia vs rory, but end far more violently

 

[McgreGOATsLeft]

Robbie would come in as the favorite for sure, that would be a good one though.

 

[megaton]

I like both guys but would have to pick Lawler for this one. Maia will probably get a takedown, maybe even take his back for a round, but I think in a 5 round fight Lawlers defiantly got the edge.

 

[L.T.]

MAIA. It's not even a fucking question. What is more likely a flash KO against a defensive jiu jitsu specialist with good boxing or Maia getting at least 1 take down a round. I would put Maia at -250. Can't wait to profit from this fight if they ever make it which I doubt they will. Maia is the most underrated and under appreciated MMA fighter in history IMO. He is a "boring star destroyer". But his fights are like watching a Professor fight students. He's on another level right now in this weight class.

Robbie would be the betting favorite. Maia has a great shot to win though and I would pick him and root for him.

Yeah I kind of think Maia would get murked in this fight if he shoots those sloppy TDs like in round 3 of the Brown fight. He's going to have to be on point to have a chance

 

[Breaking]

Maia never gets Robbie on the ground...so he loses.

Also, count Woodley out.
