Demian Maia vs Jorge Santiago

Demian Maia

ALLENAMENTO: Due volte al giorno. BJJ, Boxe, Thai boxe, condizionamento.

Cosa pensi dell'avversario Mark Munoz? E' un lottatore duro e un atleta con esperienza. Non ha fatto molti match di MMA ma ne ha fatti molti di lotta libera e quindi penso che sia molto esperto. Inoltre ha mani molto pesanti.

Quando e perché hai iniziato ad allenarti per combattere?
Ho fatto Judo quando ero un ragazzo e ho anche fatto kung fu e karate quando ero un teenager. Dopodichè ho iniziato ad allenarmi nel BJJ. Sono stato coinvolto nelle arti marziali fin da quando ero un bambino.

Che riconoscimenti e titoli hai detenuto?
Cintura nera di Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I miei titoli principali nel BJJ sono: tre volte World Cup champion, due volte World Champion, Pan American champion 2006, ADCC champion 2007, ADCC 2nd place in 2005, Brazilian champion, 7 volte state champion, 4 volte Brazilian team champion.

Hai qualche eroe?
Rickson Gracie.

Tecnica preferita?
Sottomettere il mio avversario senza farmi male e senza fargli male.

Cosa significa per te combattere nell'UFC? Un sogno

Sei andato al college e che risultati hai conseguito? Ho finito il college nel 2001. Ho una laurea in giornalismo.

Quale era il tuo lavoro prima di iniziare a combattere? Ho sempre insegnato Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
