Elizeu Zaleski headlines the preliminary portion of UFC on FOX 25 against Lyman Good, and that's more than he ever dreamed about before starting his mixed martial arts career.
Born in a small town called Francisco Beltrao in Parana, Brazil, Zaleski had to make important decisions early in his life. When his parents split, he went to live with his mother in the big city. Four years later, though, he decided to move to the countryside and live with his father Irineu dos Santos on his farm.
Dos Santos had corn and soybean plantations, but his specialty were pigs and milk cows.
