“Daniel is called "Cachorrão" which stands for Big Dog in Portuguese slang. The nickname started on the mats while sparring at his coach's academy. At the time Daniel had both his hands occupied trying to control his training partner, he proceeded to use his mouth to untie a lapel and pass it to one of the hands. A friend that was watching found it amusing and said he resembled a dog. Soon enough his teammates started calling Wanderley "Big Dog".”
