I have been a fan of Rousimar “Toquinho” Palhares’s as a BJJ/MMA fighter for quite some time and after watching this video, I am even more of a fan of Toquinho as a man. Truly inspirational!
I look forward to seeing Toquinho put on another clinical display of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at UFC Rio! One of the best submission artists in MMA today!
Good Luck With Your Training And Happy Rolling!

just posted this awhile ago. my wife was telling me that his accent in portuguese, you can tell he comes from a humble background, has had less education, but people in Brazil prefer fighters like him and Belfort b/c they seem more humble than guys like Anderson Silva. and that a lot of people back home in Brazil actually don’t like Anderson much, if at all. they could care less he has the belt, b/c of the way they feel he represents Brazil to the world and the way he’s acted in the cage/during fights.
