Maia is almost the total opposite to Covington, character-wise. The Brazilian is quiet, respectful and just goes about his job, whereas Covington is making as much noise as possible ahead of the bout as he desperately clamours for attention in a talent-packed weight class.
Victory over Maia will give him all the attention he needs, but most experts are likely to be picking Maia to use the American’s wrestling against him and secure the 13th submission win of his career.
Will the upstart upset the master? It’ll make for a fascinating matchup.
