Slp408 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 When frankie pulled out of the ufc 130 fight with maynard, pettis was going to step in to fight maynard. Then all of a sudden maynard is "injured" aswell. Do you think he just doesnt want to fight pettis and risk not getting his shot at edgar again? http://www.bjpenn.com/profiles/blogs/pettis-planned-on-replacing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobercuban Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 I would guess theres a 30-40% chance that's the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP24 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 ROFL, Pettis? He'd know that'd be a good way to just tack on another win to his unbeaten record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ultimatefightingchamp Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 He would LnP his way to a decision. And he'll beat Frankie BLEE DAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobercuban Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 I my mind the likely scenario is Maynard had some sort of knee injury but was not planning to pull out of the fight. Fighters and camps hide injuries all the time. When he found out Edgar would be unable to compete he decided to let the cat out of the bag and let the match get scrapped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainSuperman Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Pettis hang with Maynard? Maynard would wrestle him down and grind out a decision, or maybe possibly get the finish. This fight doesn't stay on the feet, so no loser "Showoff" kick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maynard would easily outstrike Showoff, and be able to dominate the ground game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyCWood Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Maynard would rape the overrated Pettis. Same as Frankie would do. Same as Clay is about to do. Send him to the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maynard would easily outstrike Showoff' date=' and be able to dominate the ground game.[/quote'] I agree that Maynard would win but only via LnP. And theres nooooooooooooo possible way that he would out strike Pettes. If it stayed standing Gray would get tooled, but it wouldnt it would be 5 rounds of Pettes getting layed on.

StephenColbert Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 possibly. i don't think it would be cause he's afraid of Pettis, i just think it's cause he doesn't wanna lose his shot at the title. if this was the case i would have even less respect for Maynard...& i already have almost zero.
