Zuluzinho returns to MMA

His most notable wins are Minowa man and sentoryu, the only way zuluzinho even made a career was being a giant sized guy from Brazil with some made up story about his family, his skills were nothing of note. No disrespect to the guy but he wasn’t famous because of his martial arts talents.

Something about his father being a legend and streetfights etc... some typical storyline from back in the day, and possibly I know one thing i would give it a try.

He was chosen by Hickson to headline his 1st Vale Tudo fight, and he even got the rematch.
Fundamental fight in Modern Vale Tudo, that led to UFC and Modern MMA.
Hickson admitted he was his toughest fight, almost quit on his stool.

Euclydes Pereira, another Vale Tudo ATG, loved to brag about how he beat Rei Zulu 1 year b4 Hickson (Rei Zulu almost choked him out).

James Adler lost to Zuluzinho, are ya better than him?

Honestly I would favor myself over this James Adler, I’ve had 11 years of on and off mma training and not just one demension of the game like most did from the early 90s,
Match me up with the Joe Sons and the giant Silva’s and some of the other guys who had no business fighting and I think I could have had a better record than some for sure.
 
He is about as scary looking as Butterbean is scary looking...too bad he has to comeback under these circumstances pushing 40.

Last I heard of him, Rei Zulu was living in a shitty one room wooden "house" in poverty in a small village, and he makes money by letting young rich brazilians JJ practitioners beat the shit out of him and film it for fun and bragging rights...

Poor Rei Zulu, with his son having 5 kids of his own + financial troubles, who knows if he can also afford to house and feed his own dad...

Not so true.
Yes, he lives in poverty.
But hes quite retired. Hes quite fucked up also. If im not wrong, he had a stroke some years ago also.
