When and why did you start training for fighting? I started at five years old in BJJ because my dad and my brother were involved in the sport. At 17 I did my first MMA fight in my hometown of Amazonas. Since then, I haven’t stopped, and that’s why I’m here now.
What titles have you held? Featherweight champion for LUX Fight League, XFL, JFL (all in Mexico) and the bantamweight champion for EFN in Brazil. I’m also a jiu-jitsu black belt and have won several national championships.
Do you have any heroes? My dad and my brother
What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It means something special and big because I have been training so hard all my life for this moment. I have spent eight years away from home and my family doing everything for this opportunity.
What was your job before you started fighting? I used to teach at my dad’s gym, it was for love, not a job at all. And I still teach Jiu-Jitsu and MMA in my gym in Mexico
