Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2016-05-14, pretty good fight between Demian Maia and Matt Brown: it gets three stars.The black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu Demian Maia entered this fight with a pro mma record of 22-6-0 (59% finishing rate) and he is ranked as the No.7 welterweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Robbie Lawler). He suffered two consecutive defeats between 2013 and 2014, against Jake Shields (=Maia vs Shields) and Rory MacDonald (=MacDonald vs Maia), but then he has won four bouts beating Neil Magny and Gunnar Nelson in his last two (=Maia vs Nelson).
His opponent, Matt Brown, has a record of 20-13-0 (90% finishing rate) and he entered as the No.10 in the same weight class but he lost two out of his last three bouts, against Robbie Lawler (=Lawler vs Brown) and Johny Hendricks (=Hendricks vs Brown); after this bout he beat Tim Means (=Brown vs Means). Maia vs Brown is on the undercard of Fabricio Werdum vs Stipe Miocic – UFC 198. Watch the video and rate this fight!
