In the beginning I thought it was because he was naive, or had too much nervous energy during the fights."But then he caused a lot of incidents inside my academy during his camps and I changed my mind. I got tired of seeing how he hurts people so often when he is sparring, especially when he has a fight coming up. We used to argue every time it happened, so we argued a LOT."That was a reason - together with his nonsense excuses every time he lost a fight - that our relationship started to get bitter. I actually hired a psychologist to help me with him but, as we have seen, it didn't work."Now with Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney saying they WON'T sign Palhares, it's hard to see where the troubled submission specialist goes from here.

BEAST
He hurts his own gym members. If he gets subbed, he wants you to respect his tap and let him go... if he subs you, he wants to break and tear your limbs after you have tapped
he shows no mercy but expects it himself, no warrior spirit in this guy, glad the UFC cut him, he didnt just hold on to long he kept improving his position even after the tap, true grub.
My friend met him a couple of years ago. Said he was like a puppy - very childlike and innocent and very very friendly. I don't know if it's malicious behaviour or if he just swtiches off.Either way, he was exciting to watch. Shame he had to be such a mong about it.
