Special

While the World Cup of Jiu-Jitsu didn’t start, our editor, Eduardo Ferreira, couldn’t pass the opportunity to meet the training center of one of the biggest MMA teams in the world. Even knowing that Rodrigo "Minotauro", Anderson Silva and other big names were on their way to Brazil, our team took the road towards Redondo Beach and went to meet closely all of the details of the Black House TC, a meeting point of several tough fighters and the remains, or, remained hidden in California.

On the wall, the face of Barack Obama and the White House, obviously painted in black, make it clear where we are, and the manager Ed Soares, partner of Jorge Guimarães, the Joinha, presented each corner of the academy. Everything was very quiet, until we were surprised by the arrival of Rafael "Feijão", which appeared to train. With André Galvão in the mat, helping in the preparation of the Atos to the World Cup, the MMA dream team was complete when Anderson and Minotauro, which delayed the return to Brazil, entered the main door, beyond the arrival of Gesias Cavalcante, light weight of the ATT, who took the passage by Califa for a session of photos of his sponsor and got a few "lessons". "Only fight masters, man, it has to suck what it can... I couldn’t lose this opportunity", said Gesias, summarizing the level of training that we exclusively bring in the following pages.
