Ricardo Arona is a Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt under Ricardo Libório and the Carlson Gracie lineage, being a submission wrestling (no gi) legend, having won the ADCC on 3 occasions. Ricardo Arona also led a successful mixed martial arts (MMA) career having fought some the biggest competitors of his time, fighters such as Fedor Emilianenko, Wanderlei Silva, Mauricio “Shogun”, Murilo “Ninja”, among many others in the now extinct Pride FC promotion.

“Brazilian Tiger” was a nickname he received during his Pride Fc days. This is due to his tiger tattoos, and also because of Arona’s combat philosophy, were he often mentioned that “you need to be the Tiger [predator] and never fear your prey”. This chain of thought first came out when he gave an interview to Tatame Magazine.

Erik Wanderley is a former Brazilian Jiu Jitsu World Champion with experience in Muay Thai, Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts. A BJJ black belt under Vinicius Magalhães “Draculino”, Erik is considered one of the best fighters to have come out of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, a state that has brought to BJJ important fighters such as Lucas Lepri, Marcelo Garcia, Cristiano Lazarini and many others.
