  11. At 1:00. Not saying it's the case for Maia, since his jujitsu is the bomb. But if someone else would try to implement his strategy, wouldn't you open up for a kneebar?

  12. This is the 3rd(and by far best so far)Demian Maia video I have come across today, and the one thing Ive noticed amongst the comment sections are people referring to his style as"boring"…..seriously?! If you really think that, then you must be a very uneducated fight fan

  14. This is such a dope series!!! After training gi only 6 months i stumbled onto this channel. Squeezed in 1 day a week for nogi. I watch Demian Maia breakdown 1-4 every day. Just having these theories fresh in my head when training helps open the white belt "tunnel". It will be 11 months the end of Febuary and professor has told me its time for a blue belt. Jiu Jitsu has changed my life for the better and your videos have changed my Jiu Jitsu for the better. Thank you

  20. BJJScout, could you please do a video highlighting the techniques, and when to use them, that you mentioned in regards to regarding? The list you made is at 2:51 of this video.

  25. @BJJSCOUT How is this leg-weave passing game going to change now that the DDS / Cross Ashi Garami / Saddle / rX-Guard game has come to prominence? I notice Maia doesn't even bother to keep his foot hooked in MMA; is the deep underhook enough to keep the Leglock game at bay in a NoGi context?
