After leaving the Chute Boxe team at the end of last year, brothers Murilo Ninja and Mauricio Shogun, left the idea of forming a team in the United States, and joined André Dida, another former kickboxer, to form the Universidade da Luta team.
“We decided that we will all stay in Curitiba. My brother (Murilo Ninja) had already bought a ticket, but decided to stay. The two of us and Dida (André) will stay and we will create a new academy, called UDL (Universidade da Luta). The team promises, we already have around 15 fighters with us. I'm back to heavy training and we're training muay thai with Maurício Véio and physical preparation is being done with Moralez. We are looking for a Jiu-Jitsu coach to do our preparation on the ground, but for now we are training among ourselves. For now the training is taking place at a gym belonging to a friend of mine, because we have fights coming up, so we already have to train hard and there won't be time to form a gym by then, but as soon as our commitments pass, we will commit to it”, Shogun said.
