Two legends still in absolutely incredible shape. 👊🏻

Damian is one of the greatest Jiu-Jitsu players ever… and Benson survived 20 minutes, that says a lot about his Jiu-Jitsu defense.

[jbj]

Henderson not getting subbed is a huge win for him. Maia was being crafty but Benson wouldn't let it happen.

[gentilewarrior]

Maia's technical skills is simply elite, his transitions, sweeps and his ability to play chess thinking 3, 4, 5 moves ahead is a sight to watch to those well acquainted in the art of BJJ.

[vutran]

This is a win for Benson Henderson, surviving and escaping Damian Maia body triangle back control!

[xl]

Arguably the best BJJ guy in MMA vs a guy with some of the best submission defense in MMA.

demian is like the old wolf you can’t mess with

[austizze]

This match went exactly how we thought it would go lmao. Demian on his back and Benson not getting submitted for 7 hours

[devildog]

Maia is BJJ masterclass. Almost impossible to get that man off your back, and just as impossible to survive it. "Smooth" Henderson is just tough as nails and freaky strong for his size, but this match showed that his BJJ is top notch also. To have Damian on your back for the better part of 20 minutes and survive says it all.

Maior mestre da arte suave que o UFC já teve.

[russellinator]

Wow, Benson looked ready for another two 20 minute rounds. Incredible stamina, especially for the pace.

[christianhuaman]

Gotta say this was actually a huge upset. Maia should have been able to put him to sleep. He's far more experienced in bjj. If I was Henderson I'd take this as a win.

[jonnysith]

benson should've joined ONE, he would've killed it

[tiemanschnitzel]

Love Demian's jiu Jitsu. Slow, methodical and beautiful.

[nicorepetto]

It's incredible that everyone knows exactly what Maia is going to do and most still can't do anything about it because he is that good

[darienbrown]

It’s one of my favorite things when former ufc guys do grappling matches against eachother, especially when it’s a guy like demian who was known for his jiu jitsu. I’d love to see khabib vs Mia but I know it would never happen

[VelhaGuardaTricolor]

I don't know which of the two I love the most. Inspirational fellows!

[jefft]

Man Maia's back control is insane. Surprised Benson didn't get choked out

[masterjenkins]

Watching Maia do jiu jitsu is mesmerizing

[Wisdom]

Bensons takedowns are just so beautifully implemented and timed.
