Nivaldo Oliveira was born on the 10th of May, 1983 in Guaruja (on the coast of São Paulo State, Brazil). Nivaldo’s first contact with martial arts came at the age of 16 through Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Nivaldo’s brother already trained BJJ but “Nil” was only convinced by the benefits of grappling after watching some footage of Royce Gracie in action, those early UFC’s changed Oliveira’s perception of the sport and made him want to follow his brother’s footsteps. This video highlights Nivaldo’s perception of his own journey and career, through ups and downs. Highlights his never ending desire to keep chasing his goals.
