Adam Santos
MIXED MARTIAL ARTS
HOME TOWN: Sao Paulo, Brazil
RESIDES: Vancouver, BC
BIO
In Adam's words, " I've had an interest for Martial Arts for as long as I can remember. I always loved watching the classic martial arts movies from the 80's and 90's and when the first UFC events came out on VHS me and the other kids used to rent them and go outside to try to recreate those moves we had just watched. When I was 12 for influence of my older sister I started learning Morganti Ju-Jitsu. A style of martial created in Brazil, but based on Japanese Ju-jitsu. And I haven't stopped since. I moved to Vancouver in 2008 after being invited by Cesar Narita, a good friend of mine who was trying to establish a Morganti Ju-Jitsu and MMA school in Canada. The rest is history."
