Rumor has it that they are trying to get Maia to fight Anderson for UFC 112. -

More dangerous fight IMO

I thought that was the best choice considering Maia is in shape and took no damage. He is the healthier fighter and you have to be 100% to fight Spider.

Hell of a break for Maia if he's able to go

I am still saying move up and face Randy.

I hope they give Damian Maia the title shot.

how is maia going to get this to the ground??

I fear Leites Part II here...

Anderson will slip on some random marbles.

He was able to take down Sonnen who is a far superior wrestler than Anderson.

Yeah, but you don't worry about Sonnen's hands like you go Anderson's when you're closing the distance.

If Lutter and Leites were able to take down Anderson I'm sure Maia is more than capable of doing the same.

Why would Maia have trouble geting Anderson down?

I'm telling you guys, this is a more dangerous fight than Sonnen. Sonnen could just blanket Anderson, but wouldn't be a big threat to finish the fight, and Anderson is slick enough to scramble or pull a sub off his back (Paired with Sonnen's weak sub D). Maia might not be a threat standing, but he can finish Anderson if he gets him down, and he has 5 rds to try and do it.

Yea like anderson has good takedown defense LOL!!!! Can't wait till this smug champ loses.

Yes, I am...."Thales" took him down in the fight.

weak, chael deserved this fight. This sucks.

Sonnen will still get a shot, but no way he'd be ready for this event

This time if Sonnen says he would much rather fight Anderson than Maia people might actually believe him lol

ninja you didnt like my towel-thales play? cmon work with me i am sleep deprived.

Maia on Anderson "I'd Be Lying If I Said I Was Going To Exchange With Anderson Silva"
