@fefffy91 nah, Gray improved in that department..you people forget that fighters progress..nate diaz couldn't do the second time around and he ain't gonna do it this time since Gray is training at aka and with Jose Aldo..theres no way Nate will beat Gray

[fefffy91]

@junbeat91 nate diaz could submit gray very easily also from his guard: triangle choke or armbar

this dude has no shot against JLau

@theprodigyPR Gray is too strong for pettis, i dont see pettis submittin him..nobody can do it..gray never been submitted since tuf..frankie had a tight choke on Gray but gray has strong grip on his palm..its possible to catch in a lock but gray will use his strong hands to loosen the submission..look him up on sports science..he has a stronger grip then NFL lineman's..i see gray throwin pettis around..pettis had a easy fight against jeremy stevens who lost to lauzon...pettis lost to guida..

@junbeat91 I ment on gray maynar

[junbeat91]

@theprodigyPR choke? Lauzon has 16 wins by submission, and really good on the ground defensively..Pettis only chance is if he keeps it standing, but then Lauzon has that unrated power..i think Lauzon has a huge momentum and he is at his best when coming off big wins..just like after the pulver fight, he went on a streak..so 2012 is going to be a good one for lauzon..I've been right on my predictions lately, im not saying im always right but i don't talk the fight only but im a fighter myself

[theprodigyPR]

@junbeat91 The fight will probably happen soon, I dont think Lauzon can beat him tho. You have a good point but I dont see it happening, if the fight happens I see Pettis wining via Triangle Choke.

[junbeat91]

@theprodigyPR Grays wrestling will beat pettis standing..gray has no problem with tall oppenents, gray never tried to wrestle frankie and thats what caused him the fight..i see gray taking down pettis and pounding him like what he did to florian or he can stand and pick apart pettis like how he did to jim miller, roger huerta and nate diaz..joe lauzon will submit pettis..pettis and good stand up but wrestles and grapples do well against strikers like pettis who kicks very often

[junbeat91]

@theprodigyPR thers only one way to find out and thats for them to fight..you got your opinion and i got mine..Gray never has cardio problems, everything you in that fight with frankie is all adrenaline..and you're going through some adrenaline rush, your heart rates goes up..Gray can actually fight and go long, i've seen him climb ropes for hours and hes a machine on that versa climber...kenny florian and roger huerta are both cardio machines but gray controlled them in all rounds..

[theprodigyPR]

@junbeat91 I think if Pettis fights Gray he will Sub him if the fight stays standing he will win a easy desition, Gray is a strong fighter but he is slow, Stiff and has problems with cardio if its a fast pace fight. In my opinion Pettis can Beat Gray everywhere
