When and why did you start training for fighting? I started training Taekwondo in a Social Program for underprivileged kids back in 2013, when I was 16 years old. I fell in love with the sport and never stopped.

Training: I train daily at Team Borracha in Contagem, Minas Gerais. Carlos Borracha who is the head coach of Team Borracha, strives to improve our performance and is very detail oriented.

What titles have you held? Jungle Fight Champion

Do you have any heroes? I do not have heroes; I have Jesus.

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? Fighting in the UFC is actually the realization of a dream. It’s really a dream come true. I never gave up even when things were not going the way I planned. In January 2021, I was supposed to make my debut in the UFC, however I broke my arm during one of my training sessions one month prior to the fight. It was a huge disappointment. After recovering from this injury, I sustained yet another injury on the same arm. Subsequently I suffered a broken nose during a training session. It was hard to go through all these injuries, but I held out hope and believed in God’s plans. I believe God knows what’s best for me and I feel blessed to make my debut; I consider it a victory.
