Busy Days For Mauricio "Shogun" Rua

-  Special Thanks go out to Julio Heller for the following:

Dear Friends,

After the PRIDE GRAND PRIX, everything changed in Shogun's life - the recognition of the Brazilian fans and

press is huge, the new routine of the GP Champion is a little different and busy.

This past Wednesday,  the crew of the SPORTV PREMIERE COMBAT, the cable TV Channel that transmits

PRIDE to Brazil visited Curitiba to make a special report about Shogun, showing all the steps of the

Champion. After some interviews in the Chute Boxe Academy, they made a visit to the new Shogun house,

an interview with his mother, Mrs. Clementina, a marathonist that inspired all the family. 

To close the busy day, we went to a Photo Studio to make some pictures for the next cover of a famous

Brazilian Magazine, when Shogun had the opportunity to show his Model side and the beautiful GP Belt.

Best regards,

Julio Heller
