How was it unexpected? Ben's a pure American/folks wrestler. Didn't matter he could easily took Maia to the mat, once they hit the ground, they're in Maia's favorite playground. Anyone who thought on the mat, Askren was going to out maneuver AND then submit Maia was not a serious fan of MMA. Even crazier, if they thought Ben was going to KO Maia standing, via legs or fists!
I really liked this fight because Maia was letting his hands go the whole fight, not really terrified of the takedown because he's so good off his back.
You know those dreams you have, where you get into a matter of life and death kinda fight? You start swinging with everything you got to protect you and yours, only to find out your swings are in slow-mo and out of desperation you try and 2:35 your opponent. The outcome is the same and you wake up like "Why tf would I try that??".
@@nonglishq6727 I like grappling but the guy didn't know how to strike on the ground. I agree he is a phenomenal grappler probably the best BJJ in MMA. But we gonna admit he is boring. That's why Dana didn't want to put the belt on Maia. He isn't a draw. He had the most boring title fight in the history of UFC. Watch his fight against Anderson Silva and Woodley he looked like a fool.
Maia didn’t have to worry about the standup with this one I’m sure he wanted that knock out victory on his record. What more of a better guy to do it against then Ben askrin. Lol
Try training a day in your life and you’d know that lawler was out , literally you can see soon as Ben lets up a little on the squeeze Robbie wakes up from the change in body mechanics from seconds prior . But you’re a adult talking shit in CZcams comments who still lives with his parents so I can’t expect to much from you right dork?
Finally K-1 Maia vs Goldengloves Askren
Greatest striking match of all time
This was actually a really good fight...
i came for striking at the highest level. wasnt disappointed
This was actually the entertaining fight with unexpected outcome at the time.

This Askren guy has a really crisp striking, i would love to see him do exhibition boxing match sometimes down the line.
Lol
One of the greatest displays of pure stand up skills shown in MMA
Damn bro, that day Askren made demian Maia look like a prime sugar ray Robinson 🏃🏿♂️🥊👊🏻🤕
Just remeber that Dariush, Gane Johnson and Salikhov were in the undercard, crazy.
Great fight!!! Can we get matt brown vs robbie Lawler
Yo Embrace, I have a request man. Please upload Johnny Hendricks vs Robbie Lawler 1 and 2.
Part 1 was a great fight
I'll never understand how Ben was undefeated. I know his wrestling was elite but my God his stand up is the worst the ufc has ever seen
He was fighting cans like every top fighter in a different organization, ufc gives you straight killers vs killers (most of the time)
i didnt see the power on his striking
His wrestling ain't even elite
@@gamebred6995 mf just said an olympian and one of the greatest college wrestlers of all time didn't have elite wrestling
Ty I ways wanted to see this "fight".
Thankssss
I really liked this fight because Maia was letting his hands go the whole fight, not really terrified of the takedown because he's so good off his back.
最高に良い試合
very good👍
If you mute it This is literally like watching a ufc fight on 0.5 speed
Such a beautiful match. Lots of high level technique 🤌🏽 (not the striking oc)
the grappling was legit so interesting
Ben Askew
I never realized how fast Demian's hands really are
I’m just here for the spinning back fist
Bens body type is so goofy 😆
He is like an overgrown baby
Please tell, whats the story of them big puppys .....🙏
Ben takedowns are amazing.
Maia's reverses were even better.
Upload leon edwards vs usman
Maia always looks like he has to take a dump
War machine vs j roc at the tuf finale next!
Ea sports ufc 2014 looks great

Had Ben won this he probably wouldn't of fought Jake Paul. I'll forever hold it against Maia 😂
I thought that was ben askew
Choked him out with one arm!
I don't get it. Why till this day some ufc fighters still give their back?
shushitzu
Asscreen🤣😂
Best striking match I ever seen Jake Paul was probably shitting himself before there fight and so was masvidal 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
First time Maia wasn't in a boring fight. He's always boring.
Maia's fight with Cheal Sonnen was cool fun if you like grappling.

I find Maia exciting because everyone knows what's coming but it's hard to stop. Fascinating to see it unfold
@@joescaletta9665 Askren was winning in the stand up
Ben Ascue

Ben Askren AKA His back Ben Aiken.
This is that ben askren shit
Ben “Asschin” would’ve been more appropriate.
*Ben Askew
He gave up his chin.
They were actually tryin to pretend Asscream was #11 in the world when he had zero legit wins in UFC, lol
