Gray Maynard’s Keys to Victory

After coming off a heart-breaking loss to then lightweight champion Frankie Edgar, Gray Maynard looks to avenge his first professional loss by bringing the hurt to Clay Guida.

With excellent striking and the ability to capitalize on the ground with a submission if Guida makes a mistake—paired with cardio for days—Maynard will avenge his loss and get his career back on track.

 

Clay Guida’s Keys to Victory

Despite 12 career losses, Clay Guida is not the guy Maynard wants to be fighting right now. Before losing a tough bout against now-champion Benson Henderson, Guida had strung together four exciting fights in a row and was becoming a fan favorite.

While Maynard is tough, he isn’t as tough as Benson Henderson, who Guida pushed to his limit. This is a classic case of the irresistible force against the immovable object.

 

What They’re Saying

MMAWeekly.com lead writer Damon Martin is reporting about his last trip to AC:

Popular radio show Ring Rust Radio tells the truth about anytime fighters as exciting as Gray Maynard and Clay Guida get in the Octagon:

 

Undercard Fight To Watch

Sam Stout vs. Spencer Fisher          

While most fans can’t wait for the main event, the co-main event between Sam Stout and Spencer Fisher may be a stretch as the undercard, but I don’t care; this fight will be too great to not talk about.

Neither of these men wants to let this fight go to the judge’s scorecards, so expect a knockout or submission in brutal fashion. This is going to be like watching a train wreck!

 

Main Event Prediction

Gray Maynard beats Clay Guida via decision

With two men classically trained in the arts of MMA battle, there is no way that either will leave themselves open to be knocked out. While there is always the chance for a submission, neither man is well known for his prowess in tapping people out.

Both men will stand in the middle of the Octagon and exchange all night, but it will be the judges that ultimately have to make the decision. They will give the win to Gray Maynard.
