Ricardo "Demente" Abreu
Gen 6"Demente in Portuguese stands for "Madman", the reason his training partners gave him the nickname was because when Ricardo started training, he would often "give" his arm while in someone's guard when rolling in order to pass. People would often stretch his arm to the limit, but he would more then often prevail and pass. For this his coach and colleagues started calling him Madman (Demente)."
