UFC on FX 4: Maynard vs. Guida was a mixed martial arts event that took place on June 22, 2012, at the Revel Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The event was headlined by a lightweight bout between Gray Maynard and Clay Guida. This was Maynard's first fight since losing his rematch with former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar, and he was looking to bounce back with a win over Guida.

The co-main event was a welterweight bout between rising star Brian Ebersole and veteran T.J. Waldburger. Ebersole was coming off a four-fight win streak in the UFC and was looking to continue his climb up the welterweight rankings. Waldburger, on the other hand, was looking to bounce back from a loss in his previous fight and prove that he still belonged among the elite at 170 pounds.

The main card also featured a featherweight bout between Ross Pearson and Cub Swanson, as well as a bantamweight bout between Ricardo Lamas and Hatsu Hioki.

Maynard and Guida's fight was a highly anticipated matchup between two of the most dynamic and explosive fighters in the division. Maynard was known for his powerful wrestling and punching ability, while Guida was known for his relentless pace and unorthodox style.

The fight started with Guida bouncing around the octagon and throwing a lot of feints and jabs to keep Maynard off balance. Maynard was content to wait and look for his openings, but Guida's movement made it difficult for him to get his timing down.

As the round progressed, Guida began to pick up the pace and throw more combinations, but Maynard was able to weather the storm and land some heavy shots of his own. The round ended with Guida pressing forward and Maynard looking to counter with his right hand.

The second round saw more of the same, with Guida continuing to use his movement and quick hands to keep Maynard at bay. Maynard was still having trouble finding his range, but he was able to land some solid shots whenever Guida got too close.

In the third round, Maynard seemed to find his rhythm and began to land more frequently with his punches. Guida continued to move and throw, but he seemed to be slowing down a bit as the fight wore on.

The judges scored the fight unanimously for Maynard, who was able to pick up a much-needed win after his disappointing loss to Edgar. Guida, meanwhile, suffered his second straight defeat and would need to regroup and come back stronger in his next fight.

Overall, UFC on FX 4 was an entertaining event with some exciting matchups and memorable moments. The Maynard vs. Guida fight was a classic striker vs. grappler matchup, and both fighters showed why they are among the best in the division.
