Biography

Born on the 9th of September 1986 in Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil, the King of Rio is a Bantamweight fighter who competes in the UFC. As someone who started fighting to defend himself on the street, this young man figured out that he was really good at it and decided to become a professional. After training in Brazilian jiu-jitsu for a while, he decided to take the big leap. Debuting as a pro on the 10th of August 2004, he spent time with multiple organisations in his native country. Tasting victory whilst fighting can be very addictive. This was what pushed this man onto the next level too.

His star began to rise when he joined World Extreme Cagefighting. This move was the precursor to his UFC career. Because they merged with UFC not long after he joined them. As a result, the young man was given the inaugural UFC Featherweight Champion title on 20 November 2010. He defended it successfully and went on to achieve other great things too. Things have been interesting for this man up until now. He still has some unfinished business in the UFC and will be hoping to take care of that.
