While I've been a fan of Clay's for a long time and still am I'm seeing Maynard come out with a victory in this one.

Also looking forward to the Fisher/Stout and Swanson/Pierson fights. I like Fisher and Swanson to win them.

You've got Swanson over Pierson!!??!!
SHAME!!!

Im a big fan of Guida as well, but I too see Maynard walking away with this one. Especially since Gray hasnt got an official win in a while, I think hes going to play the safe route.

Anything can happen though, and Guida is no one to sleep on. Its funny how this is Guidas first 5 round fight and Im not worried about his cardio at all...Maynard has been known to fade a bit though..Could be the deciding factor in this one.

Gotta agree it doesn't look good for Clay or as said before Mayard fades and Clay gets a dec. Still a very tough route for Clay.

Tough call really. I think Swanson might finally be getting on the right track and so I guess we'll see.

I see Maynard whooping Guida truthfully, then again it's been shown that a rigorous pace over 5 rounds can quickly wear gray down. So who knows.

If Maynard fights smart/boring it should be an easy fight for him.

While i think he could outstrike Guida standing, Clay has a fast shot and can catch him off guard.... even if Gray is the better wrestler.

Im not seeing how Clay wins this. He may have a cardio advantage but hes not going to be able to really grind much on maynard early as maynard should be able to push him right off when he tries to clinch/wrestle imo and start going to work on the feet, where he is much more sound and has alot more power than Guida.
