Well, Travis Lutter's ground game when he's in shape and hydrated isn't on the same planent as Maia's, Maia has better take downs as well, This is only an easy fight for Anderson if Maia comes in with the stupidist stratagy ever and trys to strike with Silva.
Anderson's two biggest weaknesses are takedown D and submission D...
With that said Anderson should win, but this is by no means a lock...
