The six last fights of Alexandre Cacareco did not last longer than 80 seconds.  All of them ended because of a submission. The expressive professional record, which has 18 wins and 6 loss, is not enough for the tough MMA fighter to have a good international contract. “Man, I’m doing this for a long time. I got excited, than I loss the enthusiasm and now I don’t have many dreams. Honestly, if I knew it, or if I had another thing to do, I’d never enter a ring again”, affirmed an upset Cacareco, in a interview to Blog do Sensei (Sensei’s blog).

Despite having won 10 of his 11 last fights, all of them on the first round, Chute Boxe’s athlete has not fought this year. The debut on Shine, which would happen in Miami, was cancelled on the day of the event, which broke. “When I enter the ring, I do my best so that people can see the result of my work, but the opportunities are not coming. Today I know that talent is not enough, you have to have luck too”, regrets the fighter, who keeps living in Rio de Janeiro, despite representing the southern team, Chute Boxe. “It’s very cold there (laughs). The guys from Chute Boxe are running after me, but when I got there, the market was already broken. The problem is when you wait for something for so long and it doesn’t come to you and then it turn into a disappointment”, unburdens.
