Vagner Rocha

Vagner Rocha

ALLENAMENTO: Insegno Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu al mattino e mi alleno con i miei ragazzi. Quindi lavoro ai pesi e sul condizionamento, riposo per paio d'ore e faccio un po' di striking con il gruppo. Torno nella mia palestra e mi alleno nella lotta libera e nel Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

Cosa pensi dell'avversario Donald Cerrone? E' molto duro e non si arrende mai. E' un fighter di MMA molto completo. E' bravo ovunque si svolga l'incontro, sia in piedi che a terra. E' pronto a combattere e bisogna essere pronti per uno come lui. E' un veterano UFC e WEC. Sarà un incontro duro per me.

Quando e perché hai iniziato ad allenarti per combattere? Ho iniziato ad allenari diversi anni dopo il primo UFC. Ho visto la famiglia Gracie dare sfoggio del loro BJJ nell'Ottagono e sono diventato subito un fan. Quindi ho deciso che volevo imparare l'arte di combattere e non c'era altro modo che imparare al BJJ. Ho trovato una palestra di BJJ in Florida, il Team Popovitch che mi ha guidato verso i miei sogni di oggi.

Che riconoscimenti e titoli hai ottenuto? Non ho nessun titolo in nessuna organizzazione di MMA. Ho molti titoli nel BJJ come: North American ADCC Trials Champion, terzo all'Abu Dhabi World Pro Weight & Absolute, diverse volte NAGA and Grapplers Quest Champion, Brown Belt Pan American Champion, terzo al Brown Belt Gi Worlds.

Hai qualche eroe? Sono un grande fan di Renzo Gracie, Wanderlei Silva e Minotauro.

Cosa significa per te combattere nell'UFC? Significa tutto. Significa che ho la possibilità di far vedere cosa faccio meglio ed essere riconosciuto per il mio talento. Voglio costruire qualcosa, essere ricordato e non essere dimenticato velocemente come tanti altri ragazzi. Ecco perché combattere nell'UFC è così importante perché una volta entrato nell'Ottagono la gente non mi dimenticherà mai.

Sei andato al college? Il solo college a cui sono andato è stato il BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU CENTER, è dove ottenuto il mio diploma in cintura nera!

Quale era il tuo lavoro prima di iniziare a combattere? Nel passato lavoravo nelle costruzioni. Negli ultimi due anni ho insegnato BJJ.

Risultati nelle competizioni professionistiche?
Una vittoria ai danni di Igor Gracie. E' stata la mia svolta nella carriera nelle MMA.

Riconoscimenti nelle arti marziali :
cintura nera di primo grado nel Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt

Tecnica preferita di grappling: Guardia piena

Tecnica preferita di striking: Diretto destro
