Demian Maia and Chael Sonnen have already crossed paths with Maia finsihing Chael with a sweet triangle choke. Remember, it was Maia who took Sonnen down with a sweet ass trip. Sonnen was baited and transitioned to a triangle choke, forcing Sonnen to tap out at 2:37 of the first round. This accumulated to Maia getting, yet another well deserved, Sub of the night
Since then, Sonnen went on to win 3 consecutive UDs against Dan Miller, Yushin Okami, and Nate Marquardt. All 3 fights were convincing, controlling and dominating wins. The only trouble he really faced in all 3 fights was the guillotine choke applied by Marquardt, the cut sustained due to a Marquardt elbow ( but that elbow was received while Sonnen was in top position though) and maybe a few sub attempts from Miller
While Sonnen has been convincing, Maia has been less than. Maia went on to fight Marquardt after beating Sonnen. He was quickly KO'd within the first half a-minute of the very first round. He rebounded with a (less than stellar) UD win against Miller. He proved he wasn't all BJJ and showed he had some MMA skills
Now, I'm not one to agree with MMA math, but as I said before, it can't be ignored. Sonnen dominated an up-and-comer in Miller and contenders in Okami and Marquardt. While Miller boringly (and far from convincingly) beat Miller and got KO'd into next week by Marquardt
So Maniacs, Maia 2.0 Vs Sonnen 2.0. Does Maia get another sub, or does Sonnen learn his lesson and control this fight this time round and possibly finish him? Let your answers be known and maybe give the how the outcome was achieved in the comments
