Maia Signs for UFC

Date submitted: 08 August 2007

Author: Mick Bower

The UFC have made current Abu Dhabi Champion Demian Maia their latest recruit. He has signed a contract to fight in the 185 pound division.

Maia, unbeaten in his brief MMA career, said: "I am so happy that I signed with U.F.C. This event was very influential in me pursuing a fighting career and Jiu-Jitsu. I already trained karate back in the days and watching Royce Gracie fighting in UFC 1: The Beginning inspired me to this career. I am thankful to the Fertitta Brothers, Dana White and Joe Silva for the opportunity and their confidence in me. I promise to give my all to the event and the pursuit of the belt, I want to thank the fans as well and all my students and friends especially Paulo Vasconcellos for their support".

Demian Maia hails from Sao Paulo, Brazil. With Team Brasa, he has built a reputation as world class grappler. Earlier this year, he took the 77 - 87KG title at the Abu Dhabi Combat Club World Submission Grappling Championship.
