Early life
Camões was born December 23, 1978 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. According to Jorge Britto, when Camões was 18 years old, he lasted 27 minutes in a bare-knuckle bout with former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva, who was 22.[2]
Ultimate Fighting Championship
Camões signed a four fight contract with the Ultimate Fighting Championship and made his long anticipated UFC debut at UFC 106 against well rounded veteran Caol Uno, with the fight ending in a draw after a point was deducted in the 2nd round against Camões for an illegal upkick.
In his next UFC bout on March 27, 2010, at UFC 111 Camões fought Kurt Pellegrino. A fight that saw both Camões and Pellegrino grappling back and forth, ultimately a visibly exhausted Camões succumbed to a rear naked choke late in the second round.[3] Following the loss to Pellegrino, Camoes was released from the UFC with a record of 0-1-1.
Post-UFC career
Following his release from the UFC, Camões signed with Tachi Palace Fights. He fought fellow UFC veteran Steve Lopez on February 18, 2011 and won via devastating head kick KO in the first round.
Camões next fought on May 5, 2011 at Tachi Palace Fights 9 against fellow UFC veteran Efrain Escudero. He won the fight via unanimous decision.[4]
Return to UFC
After winning his last two fights since being released from the UFC, Camões was expected to face Reza Madadi on January 20, 2012 at UFC on FX 1, replacing an injured Rafaello Oliveira.[5] However, Madadi himself would later withdraw from the bout due to injury as well and was replaced by promotional newcomer Tommy Hayden.[6] Camões won the fight via submission in the first round.
Camões next lost to Melvin Guillard by unanimous decision on July 7, 2012 at UFC 148.[7]
Camões faced Jim Miller on December 28, 2013 at UFC 168.[8] He lost the fight via submission in the first round.
