alliedwarior Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Alright guys think about this, Gray Maynard has 1 finish to his name against a bum. Gray never showd any impressive striking or power until his fight with Frankie. Gray "only wins decisions" Maynard ROCKED Frankie big time. If Gray Maynard can come that close to a finish twice, Frankie is gunna be in big trouble against some fighters who can actually strike. I understand why people are considering him to be one of the p4p best but IMO he wont defend his title more than 3 more fights. (IM not gunna say hell lose his next fight cause obviusly he is a legit champion) . IMO Nate Diaz would mess Frankie up, Gulliard would KTFO of hiim (even thought he just lost so he wont), and J Lo would prob beat him to. Dont take this wrong Frankie is amazing and for now the best lightweight in the world, but there are TONs of guys who cant beat him, its like people forgot that all Grays wins were close decisions that he really lost alot of the time. ALSO I have to say WTF is up with this amazing chin talk, who has Gray ever KOd never mind even rocked ! IMO that is a sign of a bad chin not a good chin.

alliedwarior Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Don't discredit Maynard. It was a good win for Edgar. Im not discrediting Maynard as a fighter, just as a power striker. AMAZING WIN not just good for Edgar and I honestly wasnt a fan of Frankie until that fight now I love him. But im just being honest Gray isnt a power puncher and he doesnt KO peoplle. I think people are crazy to say Frankie has `the best chin ever` ect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said that read again I said Maynard is a great fighter, Edgar is the best lightweight for now. but he will be beaten and Maynard doesnt KO people, those are my two main points. Maynard and Edgar are both top 10 Lightweight without a doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5PointPalmExplodingHeartTechnique Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Frankie is awesome. Lil man. Huge heart. I hope he fights Aldo sooner than later. That being said, out of the top three contenders at the moment I think he has problems with two of them. I think he dominates Guida and has troubles with Henderson or Melendez. Not saying either beats him but only that they cause problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alliedwarior Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 frankie will keep the belt for a very long time/thread closed lol in your opinion, and i understand why you would say that. I think depends who he fights, like I said I think alot of guys can beat him but he can beat 90% of LW and 95% of FW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StompGrind Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 The reason Frankie doesn't get the respect he deserves is because he's a point fighter. He's got good well rounded striking, good enough bjj, great wrestling, movement, cardio a good chin and a ton of heart. There is really nothing outstanding about him other than he uses his style well, is very complete, can wheather a storm and has a true champions heart. He's not a fighter that can just go out and destroy and because of that he doesn't get as much respect as he deserves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
