In 2017, he  became the first (and only) black belt in history to complete the Super Slam by winning all 5 major tournaments (ADCC, World Championship, Pan Championship, European Championship, and Brazilian Nationals) in a single year.  Cobrinha received his black belt under Fernando “Terere” Augusto in 2005 and is a member of Alliance Jiu-Jitsu. Since being awarded his black belt, he has won nearly every World Jiu-Jitsu Championship in which he has competed – a total of 13. He is known for his attacking style and for his guard which was voted the Best Guard of the Decade by fellow World Champions in Gracie Magazine.
