know if I want to do it this year or next year. But it will be a big event. I can't talk about it to much right now, but soon you will all know.
BALEIA--In your opinion, who is the top jiu-jitsu fighter pound for pound in the world?
Bibiano- Without any doubts, Jacare. He won 2 times black belt absolute at the mundials.
BALEIA- Di you have a favourite match in jiu-jitsu either with yourself or others?
Bibiano- One fight at the Campeonato Brasiliero tournament in brasil 2003 or 2002 Pe De Pano vs Terere. This fight was so beautiful. Terere won, and
it got me to thinking that jiu-jitsu is all in the mind. Terere had 73 kg and Pe De Pano 130 kg, and still Terere was able to sweep him. I think about this fight alot. Everyone was very excited and emotional.
BALEIA- Do you ever want to compete in the Abu Dhabi Competition?
Bibiano-Yes, I think next year I'll compete in it.
BALEIA- You now won the mundial, the Budo and the Pan Ams within one year, what are your plans for the rest of 2006
Bibiano- I want a lot of things, but all in due time. I'm going to continue fighting and hope one day to be able to fight in canada.
BALEIA- Are you available for seminars, privates, how can people get ahold of you
Bibiano- I'm in Vancouver until May 17, after that my fiance and I will go back to brasil. If anyone wants to contact me for seminars or privates they can call 1-604-642-4252 or send a email to
jenefaweintz@hotmail.comBALEIA- Thanks for your time Bibiano. Do you want to leave a final-message?
