When and why did you start training for fighting? I started training because I would like to fight.

Do you have any heroes? Mike Tyson

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? A great honor and opportunity

Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? Yes, I finished college

What was your job before you started fighting? I played football (soccer)

•    Is a big fan of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo (in Brazil) and British Premier League team Chelsea Football Club (London, owned by billionaire Roman Abramovich)

•    Has large scar on left side of his face and said he suffered the injury when “I was just a baby and my mom wasn’t paying attention for a moment when my sisters rolled me onto the barbeque pit being used for a 1986 World Cup party.”

•    Raised in extreme poverty in Manaus, Brazil (now fighting out of Rio). Would train Brazilian jiu-jitsu and Muay Thai, often on an empty stomach or little food. His teammates, such as Wagnney Fabiano, would give him a sandwich or other food to eat.
