Hey folks, sorry I don't have any photo because my camera on my phone is broken. Just to share the story : I was walking next to the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, France, and saw (and immediately recognized) Rafael.
He was with (I suppose) his wife and his son (who was doing tricks on a skateboard). I went to see him, smiling and said his name, he smiled back. I shook his hand and just told him "Good luck for your next fight", he smiled along and said "Thank you".
It made my day and I instantly became a fan. I used to just enjoy watching his fights, because I love his aggressive style.
He seems like a grown family man. I liked his aura. I wish I had gave him my mail and told him to mail me if he needs some help/tips on his trip in my city. His wife seemed cool too.
He's the 2nd UFC fighter I met, first one being Shogun a few years ago, in Paris too, next to Galeries Lafayette in Opera, Paris.
Maybe I'm kinda lucky with the brazilian fighters, and they seem to like Paris.
Next time, I wanna meet Anderson Silva, and I'll have a brand new phone !
EDIT :
Here is a video I madethis morning for those who don't believe that the camera on my phone isn't working.
