The odds should definitely be more even.

Yeah, but this is a fight that I can't find any reason to put points on. Too well matched up; practically a coin toss.

I think Maynard's got this. If he didn't blow his load in the first round last time he could have won.

I refuse to bet on Maynard against Edgar. This has to be the closest MMA world title fight ever. No argument could possibly favor one fighter over the other.

yeah its possible. I was extremely impressed by Edgar's ability to keep his composure through out the rest of the fight and fight out a draw however i think a large part of this was because Gray was head hunting the entire fight and not really fighting smart.

This fight could go either way and it will mainly just depend on who has prepared better and worked harder.

been looking forward to this fight since the second after the decision was announced in their last fight.

Betting big on Maynard, been losing creds slowly for a while. Hope to have a big jump after this weekend
