Kicking off this UFC Rio edition of TTP is our interview with Tuff’N’Uff featherweight Eduardo Penha. Penha discusses the expectations that come with having a father who is a coral belt in Brazilian jiu jitsu. While some expect he’s had an easy road, he explains that couldn’t be further from the truth. Now that he has a record that stands for himself in the world of MMA, he seems to want to make the leap to that next level. His eye is on a late replacement fight or a Contender Series shot.
