Rodolfo is expected to debut in 2018.
Rodolfo Vieira has confirmed that he will be doing MMA next year. After fighting in Arzalet FGC and Shooto, he has now signed a contract to be a part of ACB MMA. But that’s not all.
Having stepped away from competitive BJJ some time ago (his last title came at ADCC 2015), Vieira has also been announced as a new hire by ACBJJ, a jiu-jitsu organization that is also home to Marcus Buchecha, Leandro Lo, Romulo Barral, Lucas Lepri and Erberth Santos.
