Demian Maia: Same Road, Same Flag

Taking the night off after training for about eight hours over the past three days, I came across this new interview with Demian Maia from Gracie Magazine
Q: What was the day after like?

Maia: Horrible, but I was already thinking of the next shot. I always go by something I heard Rickson once say: “Victory, once achieved, should quickly be forgotten, as it is fleeting.” I always did that in my previous fights, all of them victorious. Why would it be any different now? Defeat is, as is everything else, impermanent.
Demian is scheduled to fight Jim Miller at UFC 110, I think, for early February.
