Anyone else worried that Silva/Maia...

Will end up looking like Silva/Leites?

Nothing could be that bad

How could Maia's fight be any better. He's got less skills in standup than Thales imo. Unless Maia goes out there like a man swinging till Anderson drops him or Anderson plays his game and goes to the ground I foresee alot of butt scooting.

When Anderson fights anyone, I worry for their health.

Yeah I don't think this fight will be very entertaining. Maia can't take Anderson down, he's gonna get KO'd.

Lutter, Leites, and Hendo were able to take Anderson down, but Maia can't?.....

Maia will get KO'd before he can even attempt a takedown. Anderson is a better fighter now than he was when he fought Lutter.

Whatever, let me adjust my statement to...Maia can't KEEP Anderson down or take him down consistently.

I'm just glad BJ's on the card cause I'm gonna be pissed when I see Maia sitting on his butt looking up at Anderson like "I ain't standing up for shit"

I don't see the fight playing out like that

I found that fight to be somewhat entertaining. Hardy gsp was more boring.

There is the possibility for it, but as a Anderson fan, I'm a little worried, Maia could sub anyone at MW in a given fight, Anderson better not take this fight lightly.

Maia's wrestling is soooooooo much better than Leites'. He doesn't have to rely on pulling guard to get people down. He also has some great throws he can use to get his opponents down. This fight's gonna be super exciting because there's no way in hell it doesn't get finished.

I hope your right Chorky. And I don't mean to say it has to be finished I can watch 5 round fights all day as long as they aren't boring.

LOL it was worse!

Nah it wasn't as bad, Leites was just dropping to his back hoping Anderson would follow him there, at least Maia pressed a litlle in the later rds.

Only because Anderson is a fucktard

Good point about the later rounds at least Maia tried to press at the end.
