The Brazilian striker, who trained alongside the likes of Frankie Edgar and Marlon Moraes with coaches Mark Henry and Ricardo Almeida for years in New Jersey, has decided to move to Florida with his family and join American Top Team.
”I moved on Monday, so it’s been three days since I’m here,” Barboza told MMA Fighting on Wednesday. “There are a lot of guys I know there and I felt at home, no doubt. I spoke with the coaches and I’m happy and excited. I’m still moving, worried about this part first, but I’ll start training tomorrow.
