On paper, this fight looks to be a great one. Both have good wrestling and striking. However, it's this analyst's opinion that this may be somewhat lackluster. Both fighters are vying for a title shot and this fight has title contender implications. With the stakes this high, and both of them losing their previous fight, they both need a win here. Caution may very well take control of this fight as it has in the past with fights like this, rendering both fighters tentative and hesitant.
This fight is a coin-flip as far as I'm concerned. It'll be interesting to see how Maynard comes back after his first professional loss. Guida will be ready to go, as always, and is why I believe he wins a unanimous decision with his speed, and the fact that he has the Bill Belichick of MMA in his corner, Greg Jackson.
Guida > Maynard - UD
