Maia Prayer Vigil

[Title Fight Productions]

Yeah Gracie Mag reported in an interview with Maia that they want him against Bisping.
Are we seriously still stuck on the "it will be tough for him to get it to the ground" thing though?
HE'LL PULL GUARD IF NEED BE.
Michael Bisping isn't a strong finisher and his ground and pound isn't too on point so I would say this would potentially be another triangle victory for Maia, given that he doesn't waste time standing and getting boxed up. Although his stand up is drastically improved, Bisping is excellent at coming in, scoring points and getting out.

Bisping has great TDD and pops right back up alot. Maia has great grappling takedowns for sure but Bisping has been doing the TDD stuff at 205lbs against really good wrestlers for awhile now. Will be fun to watch and see if Bisping will have an answer for Maia's alternative takedown style and if not then can Maia hold him down?

Looks like Bisping is scheduled to fight Jorge Rivera in February. Anybody know if Maia has a new opponent or potential opponent?

Maia's next opponet... Mark Munoz at UFC 131

Maia's next opponet... Mark Munoz at UFC 131

I think that's perfect for Maia. "So you want to take me down? Go ahead...take me down. Then we'll see what happens."

Yeah, those clubs at the end of Mark's arms are the only things that have me really worried...

Lest we forget who Maia is training with now...

 

[Thorpedo]

maia took a lot of of shots from Silva and was ok, its was when he jumped into Nate's fist that hurt him

Him and Munoz will end up on the floor with Maia choking his ass out

Bisbing would have been a much easier matchup. If Munoz decides to keep it standing, pretty sure he can. Heavy handed wrestlers are always going to a problem.

That being said, WAR Maia!

Munoz is smack talkin...

he thinks just because he's training at Black House and is doing BJJ with Werdum its gonna magically trump the fact that Maia is a 4th degree Black Belt!

 

[PabloMEX]

I like both fighters, but to see Maia win with grappling magic would be awesome.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. This thread is barely older than YOU are here on the Sherdog son. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. I've had threads come back from necroville older than the both of you. :wink:

Lord Maia will smite thine enemy with the holy triangle. Naysayers fear the day of repentance when every bone will be broken and every neck will be choked. Me and my priest light candles in honor of lord Maia during this rapture.

 

[[Tycho?]]

I find it amusing that other fighters get "war wagons" and the like and Maia gets a prayer vigil, lol.

Still, I'm always on board for one of my favorite fighters.

"Saying Maia will win via TKO is like saying 'The Virgin Mary was born with Original Sin'" -Anon
