We caught up with Vitor ‘Shaolin’ Ribeiro ahead of his upcoming ‘Legends’ superfight with Kenny Florian at the UAEJJF Abu Dhabi World Professional Jiu-Jitsu Championship on April 22.
‘Shaolin’ describes the gi match with Florian as a “different challenge”, and is excited to see what kind of tools Florian brings.
I’ve been training really hard for the last month, two months. After my fight last year, I kept myself in good shape and didn’t have to push myself so hard. Just adjust a couple of things in my rolls and change some things, and travel next week feeling really good.
A three-time lightweight world champion in 1999, 2000 and 2001, ‘Shaolin’ also spoke about how...
• How he’s been increasingly more active in jiu-jitsu competition over the last 12 months
• Both of them have extensive MMA experience, but will return to their jiu-jitsu roots for this match
• His thoughts on the Abu Dhabi World Pro tournament
