UFC 202 was bananas, but now the sport rolls on. Up next: a key welterweight rematch between Carlos Condit and Demian Maia on Saturday.This high-profile 170-pound bout was actually supposed to take place at UFC 202, but it now headlines Saturdays card at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia.Condit is coming off a five-round decision loss to Robbie Lawler in a championship fight. Maia, meanwhile, is riding a five-fight win streak. In addition, Anthony Pettis makes his featherweight debut against Charles Oliveira.Lets take a closer look at this weekends main card. Dont agree with these picks? Let me know on Twitter: @bokamotoESPN.Main eventCarlos Condit (30-9) vs. Demian Maia (23-6) Welterweights Odds: Condit -110; Maia -110In a way, you could almost compare a Maia takedown to a knockout artists signature haymaker in that it doesnt take many of them to win a fight.We all know what Maia wants to do and that is take Condit to the floor. And when Maia has success getting his man down, he doesnt let them back up. Its why hes absorbed a mere 12 strikes in his past three fights combined. Thats crazy.Mostly, Maias strategy to land a takedown is to shoot on his opponents lead leg. Quite often, its a naked shot -- he doesnt even set it up with strikes. He trusts in the speed at which he changes levels and his ability to chain wrestle and finish a takedown. And it is true: If Maia gets a decent grip on that lead leg, his opponents tend to go down. Against someone willing to fight off the fence, and Condit is, he might also have success working doubles there.Just to cut to the chase here, I do believe Maia can and will take Condit down. Condits takedown defense in his WEC and UFC career sits at 39 percent. He was once taken down 19 times in the span of two fights. Hes been susceptible to the lead-leg takedown before and, as mentioned previously, hell hang out along the fence. His defensive grappling is centered more around having a dangerous guard and scrambling up than it is thwarting the initial shot.Does that mean Condit is doomed? Not necessarily. Going back to the comparison between Maias takedown and a heavy hitters best punch, its most effective early. Maia is pretty one-dimensional, and the longer a fight goes, the more challenging it can be for him to score a takedown. A non-disguised single leg shot can be rather ineffective if it slows down. And this being a five-round fight against a busy opponent, Maias shot figures to slow over time.If this fight hits that moment of Maia shoots in desperation, Condit sprawls, then Maia falls immediately to his back just hoping Condit is foolish enough to follow him, the battle might be as simple as Condits patience. In that scenario, he should be able to keep it on the feet, which vastly favors him. In other words, if there comes a time when Condit really doesnt respect Maias takedown anymore, this could turn into a blowout for The Natural Born Killer in a hurry.So, big question here: Can Maia submit Condit in the earlier rounds, thus avoiding the likely proposition of having to stand with him late? That sure seems like a coin flip bet. Maias submissions are world class, but Condits only been tapped three times in 14 years.PREDICTION: Maia dominates early, but Condit storms back big. Condit by fifth-round TKO.Featured undercard boutsAnthony Pettis (18-5) vs. Charles Oliveira (21-5), featherweight Its a new weight class for Pettis, and although Oliveira is dangerous in multiple areas, I think he introduces himself in a big way. Prediction: Pettis TKO, first roundPaige VanZant (6-2) vs. Bec Rawlings (7-4), strawweight Following her success in other business opportunities, its natural to wonder whether VanZant is still fully committed to fighting. If she is, this looks like a win. If not, well know real quick. Prediction: VanZant by decisionJim Miller (26-8) vs. Joe Lauzon (26-11), lightweight Running back one of the more memorable fights of 2012. Both are coming off quick stoppages at UFC 200. Should be fun. Prediction: Lauzon via decision Red Womens Nike Tanjun .J. -- Pitcher Carl Pavano is retiring after 14 major league seasons.

Despite the cost, effort and an improved steroid test, its possible that very few -- if any -- positives will be detected, Dr. Richard Budgett told The Associated Press in an interview.

WACO, Texas -- Two women who reported being gang-raped by Baylor University football players have reached a settlement with the school, which has been hammered by months of criticism that it ignored or mishandled assault claims for years.The settlement was announced Tuesday night in a joint statement by Baylor interim President David Garland and the lawyers representing the women. Terms of the settlement were not disclosed.It breaks my heart that even one student would be sexually assaulted while a part of this university. I offer my sincere apologies, both personally and on behalf of the university, that we did not do more to prevent, respond or support the care of these young women, Garland said.The settlements were the latest development in a scandal that has rocked the nations largest Baptist university. An investigation by the law firm Pepper Hamilton earlier this year found that the school mishandled assault claims for years. Football coach Art Briles was fired, school President Ken Starr was demoted and eventually left, and Athletic Direct Ian McCaw resigned.Baylor regents recently disclosed that 17 women had reported domestic violence or sexual assaults that involved 19 football players since 2011, including four gang rapes.The school is facing several federal lawsuits by womenn who say the university ignored or tried to suppress their claims of sexual and physical assault.dddddddddddd ESPN and the Waco Tribune-Herald reported that the women who settled their cases had not sued the university.Details of the attacks on the women who settled were not disclosed, but the statement said that both reported in 2015 they had been sexually assaulted by multiple football players in 2012. One of the women also reported being physically assaulted by a football player in 2013.Garland said the football players implicated in the assaults and the athletic department official who received a report of the physical assault are no longer at Baylor.Baylor said that since the time of the reported assaults, it has established a full-time Title IX office to investigate and respond to claims of assault and gender discrimination, revamped school policies and adopted a prevention and education program for students, faculty and staff.We commend Baylor for its work with Pepper Hamilton in its effort to improve its handling of sexual assault reports, said John Clune and Chris Ford, the Boulder, Colorado attorneys representing the women who settled with Baylor.
