Demian Maia is in his prime

He has definitely evolved. His combo of wrestling / Jiu Jitsu is absolutely lethal.
 
His prime was around 6 years ago.

Just wish he'd decided to fight at WW well before then.
 
Yeah, it appears that he is. Maia is a stud, and it's weird that he doesn't have more fans.
Impressive performance tonight.
 
He's been hit 12 times in his last 4 fights. Thats fucking insane.

this is such a big reason he looks so great in the clinch. he was great in the clinch when he was outsized and muscled at MW now he is looking like a savage when he is as big or bigger than everybody. He didnt suddenly get great at TDs, he suddenly started fighting in the right division with the right mentality for his skillset, abandoned "k1 Maia" and making getting into clinch range his main objective.

im not surprised, motherfuckers.
 
no this is sherdog

no matter who you are 27-31 is your prime, no arguments accepted
 
Would love to see him fight Anderson again before Andy hangs them up just to see if he can take one of the spiders legs home.
 
That's only your physical prime.

Technically he's better now than when he was 27.

at what age is maia the best fighter? idc about x-prime y-prime z-prime, cause thats all irrelevant

Nope. Unless you mean his physical prime, then I'd agree with you.
