Pedro Rizzo UFC Career DEEPDIVE - Episode 63 / #ufc
Pedro Rizzo tenure in the UFC was one that we consider legendary. Pedro Rizzo is the greatest fighter to never adorn a UFC title; in this episode we discuss Pedro Rizzo career and why we make the argument that he is the UFC uncrowned champion.
Pedro Rizzo represented Ruas Vale Tudo back in the mid-1990's when he fought for the UFC frequently. Catching up with him twenty five years later, Pedro continues to proudly carry the flag of his master Marco Ruas and Luta Livre.
Chris Lytle and his team go over two hours with Pedro, catching up with one of the pioneers of the UFC's heavyweight division. To say he fought a who's who of his era is an understatement and he stood on the cusp of holding the UFC heavyweight title.
