When and why did you start training to fight? My inspiration was watching my brother fight.

Amateur combat sports achievements? Brazilian Judo Champion at the School Games, additional achievements in Boxing, Jiu-Jitsu, and Amateur MMA
Do you hold any ranks in grappling disciplines? Brown belt in Jiu-Jitsu and Judo
Do you hold any ranks in striking disciplines? Blue belt in Kickboxing
What has been your toughest fight to date and why? Against Luiz Fabiano, because he is a determined and versatile athlete.
Who is your favorite fighter and why?
- Norma Dumont, for helping me not give up
- Vitor Petrino, for making me part of his family and always motivating me
- Paulo Borrachinha, for always remembering me in every one of his camps
What was your job before you started fighting? Worked as an electrician, maintaining garbage trucks.
Origin of nickname: For bringing problems to top fighters.
Personal life / background: I’m about to become a father; my wife is 7 months pregnant. I have a large, supportive family — three sisters, one brother, and three nephews — all of them are fighters.
Name three people you would like to meet or work with: Conor McGregor, Dana White
What are your hobbies or interests outside of training? I enjoy training with my friends, getting together with the crew, and I love animals. My dream is to have enough space to raise many different kinds of them.
What I’m doing today is not just for me — it’s to prove that I’m capable of turning a dream into reality.
