As Anderson Silva has stated, as has today’s “O Globo” newspaper, to the Brazilian fighters UFC Rio will be like a World Cup final. So yesterday Rodrigo Minotauro went out of his way to make the most of the setup the UFC put together on the beach in front of the Copacabana Palace, putting in a full on grappling session, to the delight of the around 6,000 spectators (according to police estimates) mulling around that section of the beach. Check out the best shots Gustavo Aragão snapped on the afternoon with UFC superstars, co-owner of the promotion Lorenzo Fertitta and a number of other celebrities assembled at the location.
