Rodrigo Lima Ruas Wang (born October 6, 1977 in Rio de Janeiro) is a Brazilian mixed martial artist. He fought for the Southern California Condors of the International Fight League.
Contents |
Ruas' uncle, Marco Ruas, is the coach of the Southern California Condors and selected Rodrigo for his IFL squad because he said he knows just how tough the kid is.
Ruas has a strong background in both jiu-jitsu and kickboxing, as one might expect, and he possesses the ability to end a fight standing or on the mat.
