Maia förklarar att St-Pierre är den mest dominanta mästaren som welterviktsdivisionen har haft och att det skulle vara en ära att få gå en match mot honom, men Maia vill hellre utmana om titeln än att gå en match mot St-Pierre.
”GSP is the most dominant champion this weight class ever had, a great fighter and a great ambassador of our sport. It would be a challenge and an honor to compete against him. He is well-rounded and a great athlete. It’s a very tough fight. I’m confident, as any fighter should be, against anyone I fight. I’m sure [St-Pierre] feels the same. I would prefer fighting for the title. Because my dream is and was always to be the UFC champion.”
Maia tycker att han är värd att få en titelchans då han gått 7-2 i welterviktsdivisionen och har varit dominant i sina vinster. Maia förklarar också att de två förluster han har i welterviktsdivisonen, har varit mot riktigt duktiga och meriterade fighters.
”All fights I won at welterweight weren’t questionable and I think I won all rounds of the bouts, besides the last round of the [Ryan] LaFlare fight. My two losses came to two fighters with crazy resumes. Rory [MacDonald], which was Fight of the Night at UFC 170, and Jake Shields – who holds wins against pretty much all top guys at welterweight – in a split decision, that I know I could have done better, but frankly I didn’t think I lost that fight. Now I won four fights in a row, and I’m 7-2 as a welterweight. I think a title shot could be justifiable. If not possible, then I would like a fight that helps me get there. I don’t have anything against any fighter in the weight class, it’s a very tough weight class, and my only goal is to fight for the belt.”
