What do you guys think? I'm leaning towards Maynard on this one, I don't see him coming that close to winning in the last fight, and not taking the title this time. Any thoughts guys?

Does Maynard beat Edgar this time?
-

Only way he loses is if he gets caught.
If it goes to a decision, it's his.

I'm assuming by your pronouns that the first "he" refers to Edgar?
I'm suspect about Edgar stealing a decision win as well, but I imagine that Maynard is going to swarm all over Edgar this fight.

i think this fight will look a bit like cruz and faber. I think maynard will cut of the ring better this time. But at the same time, i think edgar is very good to adjust. And he also has a cardio advantage. If the fight goes the distance he may end up getting the decision if its very close also.

im on maynard, its his fight to lose.

At current odds have to go with Maynard by decision
-
10-03-11 01:39 PM #7
how? edgar doesnt bite on his takedowns, and he struggles with edgars rhythm on the feet. He is in fact the one that gets taken down, and outstruck.
-

Yeah but that's based on the last fight after he dominated Edgar in first round then got carried away and just went for the one punch finish instead of fighting smart. Maynard hardly looked for the takedown in last fight. Im counting on him being smarter this fight and going back to the strategy that worked in the first fight

huh? struggles with edgar's rhythm?
did you see the first fight or the first round of the last one, or the 3rd or 5th rounds of the fight?
I didnt see much struggling, i saw a tired maynard who gassed himself out in the first round...
Maynard will catch edgar again.

Will likely be a replay of the first fight but the price is right for Maynard this time. He was favored in the first fight and after a draw is now a dog, I'll bite.

i see value on maynard by 5 round unanimous decision - currently +345 on 5dimes.

No, I said Maynard would take the decision. Only way I see Edgar winning is by catching Maynard with a clean KO, which ain't gonna be easy. Originally Posted by Vaughany

I'll take Maynard at +130. Also like him by Dec. at +250. Close fight again but he will come in with the right plan this time and won't gas early.

Yeah, really dumb to say that I don't see Edgar dominating Maynard enough to earn a decision. So dumb to have an opinion on a fight between two men, I don't know what I was thinking. Originally Posted by SATERSTYLE

It is kind of weird to say that the only way you can see Edgar winning is by KO when you can actually watch their last fight and "see" another way that Edgar could win.
I realize you don't think that it's going to go the same way but clearly it's a possibility.
-

Edgar can definetly win some rounds, but I don't think he can win enough to win the decision, especially since this time I don't think Maynard will gas out so early. He will be coming to this fight prepared to win all five rounds, i don't think he will make the same mistakes... Originally Posted by Giblets

Yes, clearly it's a possibility that Edgar can win by decision. Anything is a possibility. I just personally feel if that it goes to a decision, it is going to be Maynard's for the taking, so I would see Frankie Edgar via Decision as a waste of money bet.

You do realize that you are implying that there is no possibility of Edgar winning by decision or submission Originally Posted by gabe

What did I misspell, son? The post in which I am responding now is full of punctuation errors, so go back to school, kiddo. Originally Posted by SATERSTYLE

The value is obviously on Maynard, it's just not enough for me. The fight's just too damn competitive.
Lot of easy favorites on this one, I'd go for the 6 or 7 leg round robin from 3's on them.
Pettis is not one of them.

I hope Edgar drops to fight Aldo after he loses this.

i think there is great value in maynard via dec, but for me and the way i see this fight i just don't think maynard wins on his feet and i have little confidence he can get it down enough to win, i think edgar's pace and running will actually generate timely takedowns for himself putting the nail in maynard's "grind". edgar to me controls the pace and stand up and again i think that will control takedown stuffs and allow takedowns. edgar to me doesn't get caught in the 1st or say 2nd he is fine. does maynard really have that power after 10mins. does maynard really have a plan B if he is struggling to catch edgar or cannot generate takedowns....i think maynard has to win like couture. needs to use the clinch and fence, tie edgar up, weigh down on him, dirty box and be really patient on that takedown. just my thoughts, he is in the right camp for that and he has that skill set to do it. either way i enjoyed there last fight, and im really excited for this one. im on edgar for a half unit

Rooting for Maynard here, and do like some value on him... but I've been burned by betting against that elusive water bug Edgar before... so may just stay away.

I think we will see a trend where Edgar will come back with a more refined strategy and confidence this fight with Maynard, the same did with his back to back fight with BJ. Although, at the same time I wouldn't be surprised to see Maynard catch at some stage of the fight like he did in the first round of their second fight.
Overall I think the current line is about right. I'll probably only bet on it the night of the fight if I do well on the rest of the card. Its always fun to have a bit of action on the line with these 5 round title fight wars.Last edited by bogbat; 10-04-11 at 11:46 AM.

Maynard by Decision. I think he puts Edgar on his back and holds him there for 5 rounds. Sure it's boring, but Gray is capable of doing it and if he does accomplish it he won't have to worry about judges scoring the fight for Edgar. Just win baby.
-
10-04-11 02:06 PM #34
If Maynard gets Edgar in trouble this time around I think he will be much smarter about it, I think he learned to stick to the game plan after last fight. That combined with some + money has got me on Maynard for this one.

That's what everyone thought last time. Edgar wasn't having. Originally Posted by Nick The Greek
