Maurício “Shogun” Rua is training hard to the rematch against Lyoto Machida on UFC 113. Getting ready to the combat, the Curitiba native fighter spoke with TATAME.com and revealed he has a new training partner at Universidade da Luta gym: Glaube Feitosa, a karate fighter from K-1 stages.

"Glaube is a guy who comes from Karate and I am very honored to have him in our academy. It is a privilege, I think he is the best in Brazil. At heavyweight, he was the guy who most represented Brazil abroad. Everyone here at the academy is a fan of his,” Shogun said. "Glaube is living in Curitiba and is with us for two months. We already was a fan of the guy before this… The guy is an extraordinary person, super humble. He has a lot to help the people there in the gym. It's an asset to the academy".
