|  Demian Maia VS Ronaldo 'Jacare' Souza
Would be a great fight to watch, both have stellar ground skills.

Agreed, it'd be an exciting fight, but if Jacare's last fight is any indication I think he would definitely be able to outstrike Maia. I'd pick Jacare by TKO.

Jacare is good yes, but he wasn't very concerned about going to the ground IMO so that allowed him to be more free striking. Against Maia he should be rather concerned about going to the ground with him. Maybe Maia is not better on the ground but I certainly think he would hold his own and maybe could even pull something off. Also consider that Maia trains with Wandy, that's gotta be helping his stand up (though maybe not striking defense).
Anyway I agree and think Jacare would win but by decision.

HOSS-Bork, you should spend more time brushing up on your MMA history, and less time complementing guys on how young their penises taste.

Jacare. I think Jacare's mma game is a bit more rounded than Maia's.

I think Jacare's jits are a little better than Maia's but not to a point it would be significant on the ground. Both have improved striking but I think Jacare's has improved more, even though Maia showed really good striking against Miller. As MarceloGarcia4Prez mentioned he is definitely the better wrestler and much more athletic and I think that is the most significant advantage he has.
It's obvious that I pick Jacare.

Jacare Seems as if he would guess 1st that would be a good assumption.. My problem with this dream fight is id want a grappling match and im pretty sure jacare would make it a stand up battle and be able to keep it there
