    I don't see a thread yet. Anyone feeling up to a RbR or PbP can feel free to do so here.

    This is going to be a great card!

    Yeah baby! Can't wait for Florian/Huerta. Every fight on this card is at the least very interesting.

    Personally i also want to see Demian Maia. Could be the future of the middleweight division.

    ****! I didn't realize Maia was BJJ blackbelt and Abu Dhabi winner. I picked McDonald for the win eariler - but didn't realize who this guy was. McDonald is going to get choked out. . .

    Maia vs McDonald
    Round 1: Both guys come out agressive but McDonald goes into a clinch and secures a takedown. Maia is working a triangle wraps it up but McDonald is tough and sneaks out and gets Maias back. He had a RNC briefly but Maia rolls McDonald briefly mounts but Maia works back into half guard and soon after full guard. Jason stands and lands some shots then starts working a guillintine now he rolls to his back but Maia moves into side control then takes McDonalds back and has in the hooks for the RNC this is in but Jason gets the hold off WOW WHAT A GRAPPLING MATCH.

    10-9 Maia could go either way

    Wow!!! That was ground fighting at its best. Submission attempts from both fighters. Both escaped subs that were sunk in deep. Great round. Maia probably took on that he sunk in more subs than Macdonald.

    Round 2: Maia catches Jason with a nice looping right hand but McDonald quickly shots and drives into the fence. Both guys working well from the clinch all around the octagon but Maia trips McDonald and passes quickly into mount. Good GNP by Maia these are big elbows but enough are being blocked for it to not be stopped. McDonalds tryping the hip and scrimp escape but Maia seems to be in total control. McDonalds tries the sweep doesnt get it but does get Maia back into half guard what a crafty guy. Maia goes for in armbar however McDonald slips out and moves into half guard as the round closes what a ground battle.

    20-18 Maia

    Dominance from Maia. I think he should have gone to the body more though. Work those ribs!
