The GIF above is actually from the fight with Ed Herman, .

I wanted to point it out because it shows just how advanced his BJJ game is.  He starts by allowing his opponent to start passing his guard.  While Herman tries to push Maia’s knee to the mat, Demian grabs wrist control and extends his arm forward.  When Herman posts up on his left side, Maia brings his right leg back towards his head and then up around Herman’s controlled arm into a triangle.

THIS is an example of world-class jiu jitsu.
