Oh.. you know I'm watching. I am hoping like hell that we get to see Gray Maynard vs Frank Edgar. Not sure if they are going to show it or not. By the order the show was supposed to go, that fight would already be over... but there is no update on any play by play, and no mention of it. I am hoping that they are pushing it back and showing us that fight.
I was impressed with Boetsch the last time he fought but tonight it looks like he gave up toward the end.
I'm hoping for that fight, too. Of all the fights on the card, that's probably the fight I want to watch most. I think Edgar has a bright, bright future at 155. And Maynard is 5-0-1, so it could be interesting.
Yeah, and that soft midsection just ate a huge knee. I thought it was stopped a bit early, but I think he was cooked anyway. Big, big win for Thiago.
Yeah, that was absolutely hilarious. Normally I don't like showboating, but when you can back it up, more power to ya. He knew that sucker was sunk in deep...and he sure as hell was right.
Yeah, I've been thinking that all night. And Edgar looks tiny in there tonight. I don't even think Maynard is one of the biggest 155 fighters, but he is dwarfing Frankie. I think Edgar could easily fight at 145, and would probably be pretty dominant. Edgar vs. Faber, anyone?
Big, big win by Maynard tonight. I think the size and strength difference played a big role in his ability to get the takedowns, and they won him the fight. He looked very solid against a good, good fighter.
Maynard is a pretty big guy for 155. Not HUGE... but we were both captains of different wrestling teams opposite each other, and I came in contact with him quite a few times. He is extremely solid, and has a lot of mass for a 155 pounder. Just about all the muscle mass that you can stack into a fighter of that weight.
