Who takes the rematch?

[TBEAR]

I really think Kenny v Frankie for the strap
Gray v BJ

winners meet for the belt

But I think Frankie takes the rematch

You think KenFlo is already due for another shot at the belt with wins over Guida and Gomi?

I would put Maynard up for the 1st shot at Edgar's belt, and then have maybe KenFlo and Penn fight someone who should be coming into contention, like Sotiropoulos, Jim Miller, Pearson, Pellegrino, or maybe Lentz.

Personally, I'd like to see Penn/Sotiropoulos, and KenFlo/Miller, then the winners of those 2 matches maybe fight each other to decide who gets the next crack at the belt. If that would leave the winner of Maynard/Edgar dormant for too long, then I would put the winner of Penn/Sotiropoulos up for the shot 1st, and then the winner of KenFlo/Miller afterward.

What I hate about this match, and have hated since the first time they fought, is that it is a stylistic match up and nothing more. Maynard takes the rematch, but Edgar is still the better fighter.

I liken it to Dennis Hallman and Matt Hughes.

I see all your points but, IMO Ken-flo is no matter what still a top 5 LW. And lets be for real here Kenflo has a better shot at BJ than Gray. I dont Gray can take BJ down which means death for him by Jab. Edgar got BJ down by fighting a confusing and very fast pace fight, which I dont think Gray can do.

Penn/Sotiropoulos
This sounds fun but George is not ready for BJ IMO. Maybe George v Miller

Edgar takes the rematch via boring ass fight

Maynard had a helluva lot of trouble with the slap and tickle striking of Nate Diaz and didn't do too much better against the rusty Matador, who'd spent more time in the film studio than training. Meanwhile Frankie on the otherhand, while small for 155, has really turned it up since their first encounter. He's really poured on another level of movement and feverish pacing and I think if he comes in there like he did in the Sherk fight: COMPLETELY AVOIDING THE TAKEDOWN, he completely decisions Gray the same way.

everybody keeps talking about grays previous fights and how the turned out they turned out how they wanted to n they went where he wanted them to...He does train with couture im sure he has a solid game plan every fight, That being said he will not exchange with frankie if he gets his title shot.. and HE will out wrestle frankie...Id liek to see frankie win but ima have to say Gray by tko/ LNP

Gray Maynard for sure. Maynard has and will continue to have the right style to beat Edger and Maynard is also only going to get better. Maynard deserves the next shot let him get his shot. BJ Lost! KenFlo! lost, they gotta get in line. Maynard just keeps winning and that's enough.
