Brasil Fight will be the first MMA event in the country to promote fights simultaneously with an educational project of social inclusion through sport. Specialists in the recovery of drug addicts are already working on using sport as a way to combat drugs. The Brasil Fight social project has support from the Government of the State of Minas Gerais and the Legislative Assembly of the State of Minas Gerais. “We don’t fight drugs with phrases written on the Octagon. We have developed a real social project that will bring recovered fighters to the ring”, highlights Moreira.
