Was hoping for Kampmann, interesting fight but setting Rory up for a other snoozer. I think Rory will jab his way to a unanimous decision, i cant see maia getting this to the mat and thats the only way he wins.

I would complain that 170 is getting fights while 169 isn't even half filled, but I'm just too happy that this and Evans v Cormier aren't going on 169.

169 already has 2 title fights and Mir vs Reem, it will get filled out. It would be stacked if they added this fight to it as well, 170 needs another good fight to fill it out not a fan of Maia vs Macdonald or Dos Anjos vs Khabilov as co-main.

Did you think Maia would get Fitch and Shields to the mat, I think Maia can get this to the mat and I don't think Rorys JJ is on par with Fitchs or Shields

Gooood match-up.
The bloom is off the Rory rose.
Great test.

I know, 169 still needs a fifth fight for the main card though. And they always stack the Superbowl card. I'm just glad they have the boring fights all set for the same card (that does not apply to the Khabilov fight).
