Vinicius Olveira: An Ultimate Family Man

Vinicius Oliveira’s ambition extends beyond the cage—he dreams of someday holding titles in multiple weight classes—and his place in the loaded Ultimate Fighting Championship bantamweight division. He wants to impact the lives of those closest to him.

“My plans are all financial,” Oliveira told Sherdog.com. “We live in a capitalist system. Everything requires money. I want to make my family comfortable. I want to allow my parents to retire; and my in-laws. I’ve been with them since I was 17 or 18. They helped raise me. I want to give a good life to my wife, my daughter, my coaches and whoever is by my side.
