  • Jiujitsu its great by itself but if you want to be deadly at your ground game you should add some catch wrestling moves

  • It's really a science. This guy has amazing skills. Congrats do Demian and to the Gracies...

  • I call this submission "the Chael Sonnen stopper"

  • That elbow tip on number 2 made all the difference!

  • a voz dele parece a do niko bellic do gta

  • This guy is the most dangerous fighter when we talk about jiu-jitsu but MMA mean mixed marcial arts, then it isn't enough! You have to work your stand up fight. It's only an advice!

  • so sick i will master this=]

  • One of the dislikes had to be from Chael Sonnen for sure.

  • I'm calling it a TREE-ON-GLE from now on........just for Demian.

  • cup check 2:55... lol

  • O DEMIAN MAIA ESSA É PRA VC VELHO, MEU NOME É JONATHAN E EU SOU BRASILEIRO, TENHO 17 ANOS, LUTO JIUJITSU SOU FAIXA AZUL SOU DA CHUTE BOXE, ADMIRO MUITO O SEU JIU-JITSU ACHO VC UM DOS MELHORES, POR ISSO ENTREI NESSE SITE PRA PROCURAR ALGUMAS VIDEO AULAS ASSIM DIREMOS, SUAS E QUANDO ENCONTRO VEJO UM TRABALHO VOLTADO TOTALMENTE PROS AMERICANOS, EU ACHEI UMA "PUTA FALTA DE SACANAGEM" EIN...

  • @cannabisbjj Acho que voce quis dizer falta de respeito.

  • @PeidoLord é uma satira sobre uma fã idiota do restart que falou isso "puta falta de sacanagem" vc que mora no exterior não vai entender!

  • Demian Maia's English is great where did he learn? his explaining all of this so well

  • and this did in fact change the way people viewed fighting. The reason most judo schools emphasize so much on standing throws and so little on ground game is because Olympic judo competitions are designed to be almost exclusively on the feet, so they teach in the most generalized perception of judo.

  • 1v1 bjj is prob the best defense. obviously more than 1 opponent you keep it standing, but 1v1 bjj is the best defense against an opponent.

  • @GeneralVan hitting someone pre emptively is the best defense bar none if you think youre about to be attacked,you dont even need to be able to fight to do it.BJJ is more humane though in some situations.

  • i just dont like how BJJ is only great 1on1...wat happens if its not tournament based...or organized based fighting? self defense wise..its limited....

  • @easy2mind If you are fighting multiple people you run. Don't be fooled by fake martial arts that allow you to think you can fend off 3 people. its not a vin deisel movie

  • @Arcturistheballer its not that...its always when u dont have the option to run to be considered self defense right ? different martial arts have they're own definition for their purpose right? like the shaolin monks would train kung fu so their minds and body is " fit".but theres also martial arts that consider themselves as self defense..and bjj usually claim that...but i see bjj for just competition and or 1 on 1 self defense..and not helpfull at all if more than 1

  • @easy2mind ok then show me a video of a guy getting mugged by mutliple people and using a martial art that is designed to fight of 2 3 or 4 guys, it doenst exist. Maybe issolated cases where the attackers are retards the one person will win.

  • @Arcturistheballer well i cant show u a video..not everything can get caught on tape.. but its a general question...wat if u do encounter multiple people where ur getting mugged..and giving your wallet is not enough...women and also men..can get more than just being robbed.raped for example.what do you do?.and one example of a martial arts that has been guaranteed useful..its part of many military defense systems is krav maga.even bas rutten (ex mma fighter) refers to it when he teaches self def

  • @easy2mind Not to take away anything form Krav Maga, but no MA out there can guarantee you anything. Yes, Bas Rutten refers to it, but never seemed to use it in his fights. No MA can prepare you to deal with multiple attackers outside of the dojo. BJJ practitioners spend majority of their training dealing with resisting opponents. This makes them comfortable with physical confrontations. Instead of criticizing, why not try BJJ and see for yourself.

  • @XDisciple dont u hate the people that come in and try to be tough by just tensing up their muscles and being a block of stone? And then they gas out and complain about their muscles hurting or cramps or some shit XD

  • his training partner looks so bored lol

  • anyone who says bjj is gay is indeed.....GAY!!!

  • poxa muito bom mesmo  chocante !!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • treeange chock

  • HE is one of the BEST and a training partner of MARCELLO GARCIA!

    They were in the same team,before ALLIANCE broke_UP into ALLIANCE and

    BRASA!

  • Maia is one of the greatest BJJ practitioners

  • Worked on fedor

  • bjj is the best style to learn if you want to beat larger, stronger opponents. helio gracie, the man who invented, was only 140 lbs and he kicked ass

  • @ryujj143 Helio Gracie hi invented nothing, you cant invented somenthing that has been around for century.

    By the way Helio got his ass kicked by Sensei Kimura, and Kimura broke Helio Gracie arm in three different place.

    Do your home work dude!

  • @Samboussr Helio Gracie was outweighed significantly by Kimura, by any measure it was an unfair fight. Yet Helio put up such a good fight that Kimura invited Gracie to come teach at his school. Do YOUR homework. He may have broken his arm, but I've never heard that.

  • @jamesfwagner yes it's true helio gracie did invent nothing. I'm a bjj practitioner and even I'm willing to admit that. Helio Gracie put emphasis on newaza, or ground game. There are small, and few changes in technique to judo in bjj. The biggest difference between judo and bjj is the emphasis on ground game.

    Most judo practitioners spend 90% on the feet 10% on the ground while most BJJ practitioners spend 90% on ground 10% on feet.

  • damian maia is pretty cool

  • paabens , exelente aula, facil de entender e eficiente, MAIA the best bjj,,

  • he talks like the guy from GTA VI main character. haha.

  • these videos are great

    thanks for the upload

  • this is fascinating!!

  • yes the effective way to beat your oponent in mma if u don have any larger strength than your apponent.....and it works against the most skill and quick fighter in the world...gogo jui jitsu...i start to lov this...

  • I would keep being a smart ass and make fun of you but thats actually exactly the same as me

  • @seanyboy2586 just by the fact that you think you are bad because you are going to roll with me backs up my assumption that you have no grappling experience.

    you probably wear a tapout hat turned sideways and do backyard mma, but i could be wrong.

  • demian maia is a great teacher

  • bjj is only good for one on one self defence and competition... not group defense which is what happens most of the time

  • @shotler

    If you're in a fight with more than one guy, nothing but a weapon is going to help you. BJJ is the best...fact

  • i think my legs are too long, when i do a triangle on someone they dont tap(i have to use alot of strenth, and im not a beginner almost blue belt), whats some good advise?

  • @ChicanoRockero Your doing it wrong..

  • a voz do demian sai melhor em ingles do que em portugues,

  • bjj is my most used martial art in my fights

  • Podia rolar uma tradução para o português.

  • grande demian maia luta pra caralho

  • TRee-angle choke lol

  • @Kinzer007 HAHA I bet you sound even funnier speaking Portugese. Viado!

  • benochi...you are so gay man. "Bad argument, logically speaking." Your a pussy lmao

  • The guy with Maia is he a Gracie?

  • @Cantontigers95 that's Maia's sidekick. they wear capes and little masks and fly around Gotham City, Brazil triangle choking bad guys.

    jk. it isnt revealed who he is (maybe for fear of The Joker) but he never speaks

  • the 2nd move is so sick

  • My brother is brown belt under maia, will be his first black belt in America and ive had the pleasure of meeting demian a view times. Hes even a better guy man really good stuff. He showed another variation to that I had no idea about. When the guy takes his arm and defends by wraping around your leg. You transition the triangle of your legs and its even tighter on the otherside.

  • @Bigturns33 What state is your brother in the usa? I'd love to train jiu jitsu with some one that's that high up with maia.

  • or maybe you know play in traffic benochi

  • You are not good at insults, you are not original, and you are not intelligent. I am better than you in every way that doesn't involve sucking or swallowing. Follow your own advice and also maybe try to get an education it can only help your ignorant, useless, waste of cells. Be sure to kill your whole family too and castrate yourself so we don't have to deal with your offspring. Maybe one day, if you work really hard, you can work at McDonald's.

  • demian maia is the best !

  • im looking for a good no gi video and a good gi video series, let me know what you reccomend. thanks

  • im going to arashido for a BJJ tournament on december 12

  • he got knocked out, because someone changed his game to muay thai. He is still one of the best in mma, when you change your game you suffer a little. He should have taken the guy down where he is good at.

  • i shill dont know what the fuck he was thinking trying to stand up with marquarte. stick to what you do best

  • its not like he was trying to stand with him... it was the first strike thrown in the fight, nate got lucky and caught him, nobody knows how the fight would have turned out if he didnt connect with that punch

  • That's like saying,"Nobody knows how the fight would've went had he had an submachine gun."

    Well he DIDN'T and he got KNOCKED THE FUCK OUT

  • haha its actually not like saying that... its completely different.

    and yea i realize he got knocked out, but all im saying is that fight didnt show who the better fighter is.

  • @ajaxknightsA "and yeah i realize he got knocked out, but all im saying is that fight (Nate Marquart vs Demian Maia) did'nt show who the better fighter is"

    buddy, are you dumb? you must be dumb. If someone gets knocked out, They're obviously not the better fighter...the man who gets his hand raised is the better fighter. thats why theres a winner and a loser. If you wanna know whos the better fighter ina bjj matchup, then put nate and maia in bjj tournament (maia would smash obv)

  • @robyniggaz but when the first punch of the fight lands and knocks someone out, that doesnt show if the person who threw the punch has ANY talent what so ever, he didnt throw a combo, he didnt set up the punch, he just randomly threw a right straight and caught him on the chin, that doesnt take too much skill to do, your average boxer could have done that.. its all just luck when it is a knockout like that

  • @ajaxknightsA Yeah, i just watched the fight. it was'nt the first punch to knock him out, and if it was, then its maias own dumbass fault for not keeping his hands up. If anything, it shows maias lack of talent in his stand up. Maia threw a leg kick that missed and then a head kick that was blocked, he went for a body kick and nate saw the oppurtunity to hit him in the face since his hands were low. its not luck, maia did'nt have his hands up. and about nate not setting up the punch.....

  • @ajaxknightsA And what do you mean nate did'nt set up the punch? maia threw a body kick, nate hits him in the face and drops him. Its called a counter strike and there really effective when you dont see it coming like that. chuck liddell made famous knockouts with counter striking...so i dont think you know what your talking about bud.

  • You sound like you live in a trailer. Maia is a way better fighter then that shitty red neck that got a lucky hit. Do you know how many guys have been rocked by straight punches when they step into them? That shit happens all the time. Once they rematch they won't happen again.

  • it was 27 seconds on the feet.

  • he keep saying: den i get deh tryANGLE

  • He sounds like the guy from public invasion.

  • Brilliant explanation of the principals. Sign of a great teacher; he can not only show you good techniques, but explain why they work.

  • true, great teacher and a fighter

  • Great video. Thanks for posting. Demian's BJJ is so smooooooth! I want Demain to say "Jiu Jitsu's back" when he wins the title!

  • Lets be real man, It never really left.

  • ha but jits never went anywhere mang! karate was out of representatives and machida broke his foot off in some ppl's asses!

  • lol yea iv always wondered how can a jiu jitsu guy figt more than one person? lol to me thats why striking is useful. you need to be good at both, and now in mma everyone is proving it. look at lyoto machida, no one gave a crap abou karate, but he is well rounded he uses mostly karate in striking, and has good karate sweeps, and BJJ. so yea lol to defend against multiple ppl i say grapple and striking.

  • lol its a movie

  • hmm i wonder how a striker would do against 3-4 wrestlers, or 2-3 jiu jutsu guys...what you are saying is irrelevant as it is stupid..next time rethink before you comment...now go take a walk.

  • hmm ok i see wat you mean, good thinking btw. but from wat im seeing nowadays in MMA, is that grappling most definitely doesnt rule, but its much better to be well rounded, besides i think its cooler to see good transition from striking to grappling rather than either one alone anyway.

  • Point taken on being well-rounded, though it is interesting to note that 4 of the 5 current UFC champs are BJJ black belts--Penn, GSP, Silva, Machida. The only one who isn't is Lesnar.

  • yup and if lesnar wasnt 600 lbs hed be gettin sub'd by the jits BB's too.

  • true, the only safe place for a jiu jitsu fighter to be when on the bottom of lesnar is gaurd, but couture is pretty much the only one to get lesnar off of him.

  • Can you imagine if Brock Lesnar learned BJJ lol...SCARY

  • hahaha oh my god that would be the most terrifying thing ever. even scarier if he kept his mouth shut and had a humble attitude. and as for bjj being the real deal,youre right! but a counter overhand right to a telegraphed kick puts bjj champs to bed. : )

  • lmao omg.

    his boxing + wrestling/bjj would wreck.

  • He doesn't need to, College Wrestler.

  • GSP is a purple belt im pretty sure

  • gsp is black belt!

  • oh i heard he was a purple belt on tv like last year

  • Yeah and the only reason lesnar is champ is 90% due to the fact that he is heavier than everyone in that division, and don't forget stronger...BJJ is the real deal

  • Your failing to realize the Lesnar has great endurance, awesome strength, weight, and he can wrestle. Many jiu jitsu idiots have never wrestled and have no idea how powerful it is. Jiu Jitsu has very weak takedowns and shitty control techniques. Its better to learn to fight from your back with Jiu Jitsu and use freestyle wrestling for everything else with jiu jitsu submissions.

  • Agreed.

  • another person who has no grappling experience

  • hahah i dono what jiujitsu ur learning about.

    gracie jiujitsu> beats wrestling every time

    technique over strength

  • Why did Matt Hughes dominate Joyce then?  Every time is a bold statement. BJJ is awesome. It is NOT the only martial art you should learn.

  • bjj beats wrestling EVERYTIME.

    hughes beat the crap royce cuz he has black belt level jiujitsu + outstanding wrestling. if hughes didnt know jiujitsu and was just wrestling royce wudve done the same thing he did to everyone in the first couple ufcs.

  • There are plenty of guys that use just wrestling to nullify JJ. Sure they know some Jiu Jitsu too, but only where not to go when using their dominate wrestling. Look at Brock Lesner, and I hate him. I train all styles but to state something as 100% factual is retarded when it's clearly not. Your argument is Inductive but you pretend it's deductive. It's just not the case and that's a bad argument, logically speaking.

  • yes BUT ONLY IF THEY KNOW JIUJITSU TOO. you just proved my point man. theyre wrestling is only dominate because they know jiujitsu. im saying that if its just wrestling vs gjj.

    gjj will win everytime. its not an argument. its been proven time and time again. and there is no example u can use in the modern ufcs because EVERYONE who fights in the ufc knows jiujitsu now.

  • You state everything like it's 100% and yet there is a major variable, the word "Knowing". How much BJJ do you need to know to "Know" Jiu Jitsu. I guarantee Brock doesn't know enough to throw submissions. He can wrestle and just knows enough not to hand someone an armbar. One could easily argue that they train Judo or Sambo and don't know BJJ at all. So nothing has been proven. Fedor does Sambo and owns JJ fighters.

  • BTW, "dominate" is a verb. The adjective you're looking for is "dominant". Oh, one more thing. Lesnar studied Jiu-jitsu with Royce Gracie for his MMA debut, look it up.

  • Ya great I made a typo. I am aware of how to speak, but thank you. Also, you are using the Straw Man form of arguing which is to take a part that isn't my point and try to destroy it, and then reapply it to the original point. Would you qualify his style MORE as BJJ or wrestling? Thanks. There are plenty of heavyweights that train in renowned gyms and still are horrible at BJJ. When Lesnar armbars submits someone with BJJ I will care. That is an inductive form of arguing and invalid.

  • If you're talking about me helping with your grammar I wasn't making that part of the agrument at all. If I were though, it would be a case of ad hominem attack not strawman. Go learn your logical fallacies. What you're doing for instance is a case of false dichotomy i.e. saying it's either BJJ or Wrestling. I notice you've corrected this in your latest post. Good job! The answer to your question is ... ta-da ... more wrestling. But, it's not JUST wrestling as you maintained earlier.

  • Well I wasn't talking about that part and I know my fallacies, so nice try. I never said it was JUST wrestling, don't misquote me. Go re-read everything and have a nice day trying to prove your point but being wrong. here's an exact quote "Sure they know some Jiu Jitsu too, but only where not to go when using their dominate wrestling" I never once said "JUST wrestling" and I still maintain that BJJ does not get beaten by JUST wrestling. Smeafer gets what I'm saying.

  • Also, that was not Ad hominem attack, as you never actually insulted me directly. However you are misquoting me over and over again to try to destroy my argument. Yet failing because I never said what you quote. Drive through twice.

  • "There are plenty of guys that use just wrestling to nullify JJ". That's you from 3 weeks ago. "I never said it was JUST wrestling" That's you from a few hours ago. Have a nice day.

  • Ya way to read the entire conversation. I stand by that, the style they are using is wrestling. Just like if I elbow you in the face and K.O. you, even though I know BJJ, Wrestling, Judo, and Sambo, I still only used Muay Thai. Thanks, you also have a nice day.

  • That's nonsense. There have been elbow strikes in Jiu-jitsu or "jujutsu" if you prefer, for centuries. I was taught elbow strikes as part of the self defense inherent in Gracie Jiu-jitsu when I studied with them and those techniques have been there for many decades. Keep categorizing everything if you want to and putting it in little boxes ... it won't help. "Styles" are just meaningless ways to exlude effective learning.

  • Is it centuries or decades? Nice try, yet again, I have seen Gracie stand up, it's not even close to pretty. Bottom line is moves and techniques do fall under disciplines, and I train MMA so I mix them. Brock uses his wrestling to nullify BJJ with his size and speed. I don't really think you have a point, I just think you like to try to sound intelligent. So keep to your opinions, and I will keep mine. Now if you have an actual point, state it.

  • Centuries for traditional Jujutsu, decades for Gracie Jiu-jitsu. I never said anything about Gracie "standup" I said "self defense" Now who's using strawman arguments? "Bottom line" is, the only reason moves and techniques fall under disciplines is because we insist on putting them there. When we do so we rope off learning and exclude options. Do what works and quit worrying who to give credit to and what to call it. That to put it simply, is my entire point.

  • You don't exclude anything by giving credit where it's due and not "roping off" other art forms. But my response was to someone that said BJJ always beats wrestling. If that's your entire point I have no idea why you even targeted my statements, because I train MMA, and that means everything I can get my hands on that's useful. I even do Krav and grew up doing TKD. So whatever.

  • "everything I can get my hands on that's useful" ... nice to agree on something. I have to point out though, that there is no "credit due". These techniques are in most cases thousands + years old and are property of the human race as a whole. Call it a "kimura" or "gyaku ude garami" or a "hammer lock" but to "give credit" properly you have to do so to some tough nameless bastard nobody ever met. Your side of the argument is just as much at fault as the "BJJ always beats wrestling" guy.

  • I would be referring to the combat style not the person. You claim it's at fault yet that's just your opinion. I will still feel the way I do and you won't change my opinion, so keep yammering if you want and I will keep responding with my "I don't agree/care" comments. Plenty of current day individuals invent moves and are known as well. Also, to be the super literal guy, someone had to meet them or the moves wouldn't have lived on.

  • Obviously I don't claim a "style" is at fault. That would be ridiculous. People invent the fictional concept of style and people are to blame for the limits this places on learning and application. It's not just "my" opinion, I'm in very, very good company. Of course I must concede at this point, because any time someone says something as stupid and closed minded as "I will still feel the way I do and you won't change my opinion", the argument is of course ... over.

  • I like how you say that style is a fictional claim, that's a bold statement, not to mention completely incorrect. Considering arts are practiced individually and not everyone trains MMA still, of course there are styles and forms. Being in very good company doesn't make it not an opinion. Gravity is still theory, meaning opinion, and many people believe in it. I'm not close minded, your point is just wrong, and backed by pretend 'facts'. Good luck. To imagine me conceding is folly.

  • I said "I" was conceding. "I will still feel the way I do and you won't change my opinion" - Benochi. "I'm not closed minded" - Benochi, two days later. Do us all a favor and go test the "opinion" of gravity ... moron.

  • I believe in gravity, but it's a theory, clearly you are not very intelligent. That isn't close minded, I'm open to intelligent and well based arguments, yours are not in that category. Since you partially quote me over and over, so you can abuse the context of my statements. Conceding means not responding, I will continue to respond as long as you still think you can "prove" anything. I enjoy smashing your non-factual statements that are claimed fact. Next.

  • If you want to argue the uselessness of style ty arguing with Musashi or Bokuden or Bruce Lee. I'm tired of pointing out your self-contradictory bullshit to you to no avail. You defined YOURSELF as close minded by the statements you have made. You have demonstrated yourself as uneducated by equating "theory" to mere "opinion". Give mommy back the keyboard now and stop bothering the grownups.

  • Nothing is contradictory, I use these things called facts. Like definitions. You however spout crap and claim it to be fact, because you can probably get away with that with the retards that make up your friends group. That isn't proof of being close minded, I just won't agree with YOU. Other people have made points that I have accepted because they are sound and valid, yours are not. Theory is opinion idiot. Fact requires that it's PROVEN, I know that words are hard for you to understand.

  • You should take your own advice, learn what some words mean, then you can come back to debate with me. Until then go try to convince someone else that your opinion (which is exactly all that it is) is true. I will still believe that moves come from different styles and incorporating those into one's game is a great idea. You can tell people you just train fighting, wow novel concept that people disagree with you. Way to use one example like it's proof over and over again, ha! Retake Logic.

  • dude you are the gayest cunt on youtube right now. i hope you die in a fire.

  • Aussies really should not be allowed on the internet. Basic math and language skills should be a requirement to purchase a computer. Go hug a poisonous tree/frog/fish/snake/spider since your country is filled with them. Keep wishing you were as good as I am, and I will keep stealing your hot women.

  • "If I have seen a little further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants. - Isaac Newton. If modern martial artists would take this approach modern martial arts would be greatly improved.

  • @Benochi Hughes is a wrestler and well versed in BJJ. That, his power and Royce's being out of the game for such a long time all contributed to Royce being dominated.

  • @Benochi Ah, just saw your comment below. I completely agree with you.

  • @Warpath2198 actually I did mention lesnar's attributes which is part of why he is successful. I just said it would be more to his advantage if he learned BJJ as he did winning by an arm triangle. i have never wrestled but have grappled w/ wrestlers and my 2nd degree Gracie black belt instructor is actually a state wrestling champion/former King of Cage champion. You need to grapple w/ someone blue belt and higher and there is a significant difference

  • beautiful

  • hes a great teacher

  • very good videos.

  • Maia will get a shot real soon, hes Great. After he beats Nate Marquardt... Then he will def get a shot.

  • I wouldn't be so sure of that even though that's the way it should be. After the debacle with Thales Leites it wouldn't shock me to see someone like Michael Bisping get a title shot over a much much more deserving Maia.

  • Maia has SICK BJJ!

    when are they giving him a title shot

  • after bisping vs hendo an if gsp faces silva after that, he will probably face nate marquet who at ufc 95 looked a lot bigger then mai an will be a tough fight, i would like to see maia vs okami

  • if he beats marquardt ufc 102

  • wow! his voice get´s so mutch darker when hi speaks Portuguese compare to he´s inglish.

  • Comment removed

  • whats he mean by elbow open and closed?

  • yeah I was wondering about that too, I think he is referring to the angle of the arm as explained at 2:50.

  • Comment removed

  • very good instructer and assistant

  • eternal u. ncfa nor cal. 1.

  • Demian Maia you rock!!!

  • fucking genius! tomorrow i am gonna own... always was stuck in that position. tu maia!

  • lol, listening to him say triangle and impossible is almost as good as the technique.

  • I dont get it... what is funny about the black belt on the video saying triangle or impossible?

  • this video just up'd my triangle game... wow

  • lemme tell you the move in 5:00, the second one, IS EXTREMELY USEFULL ! demian maia is the best

  • everytime he grabs his foreleg

    he says "chin"

    and he has a very weird accent

  • i dont think he says chin, its the name of the bone, i dont remember how to say it in english

  • He's saying shin.

  • thank you for enlightening us. : )

  • these have to be the best vid s on here ; least for me and prob alot of othrs can learn faster when u no y something works . glad i found this series

  • thats like the best choke hold ever

  • he is the man!

  • HAHA he owned him self at 4:45 and 4:50.

  • lol hes like well sometimes....u can break it
