Maynard was on a tear heading into this one. He is not what one might call a Zenith fighter, but his 3 fight winning streak forced me to put him in this tournament. Unfortunately, his team did nothing with the opportunity, and he died as most would have expected he would, had they not known his season, record, and streak. Shame on you, team-who-has-Maynard.
