Gareth A Davies interviews Brazilian Demian Maia, the jiu jitsu expert, minutes after he has won a unanimous decision against Mario Miranda at UFC 118. Maia reveals he was offered a contest in London at UFC 120 in October.
Taken from episode 15 of MMA HEAT: Karyn Bryant caught up with UFC middleweight Demian Maia at the World Jiu Jitsu Championships, where he was watching Alan Belcher- the man he was supposed to face at UFC Fight Night 22. Due to a recently detached retina, Belcher is out and Maia will now face Mario Miranda at UFC 118. In this interview you'll hear Demian's thoughts on the infamous UFC 112 Anderson Silva fight: what happened, how he felt and what he should have done differently. He also breaks down Belcher's strengths and then discusses his own regimen for improving his game. Be sure to visit www.MMAheat.com for more interviews and our 1 hour show.

This is a UFC Undisputed 2010 video, used to show you gamers the positives and negatives of a fighters game while showing footage as proof to show the positives and negatives. This video is also on the main site, along with Trevor's channel that you can see below. These two have been doing a great job for the site with this series and won't be stopping anytime soon. Subscribe to Trevor, he deserves it. www.youtube.com/trevor2803 ---User Content--- This is our third Tale of the Tape, a UFC Series where we disect a fighter's game from good to bad to give you guys the best way to use each fighter in any scenario. Demian Maia is one of the best ground/BJJ fighters in the UFC, let alone the world. He uses the defensive position to improve his offense, which would be the submissions that he is able to put on peoples. He lacks the toe-to-toe power but will take you down and break your toe instead. :) He won't get the big knockout but will surely not get knocked out. He has a solid chin and isn't afraid from fighting from his back. He uses his Judo and Karate to get his opponents to the mat and from there, he lets his BJJ do the talking. Also, more CoD videos are coming, just hold off for a little bit. Probably will have some up featuring the new maps by this weekend.
