sounds like it was from something he did earlier that they had a warrant for. so hopefully it is dealt with and big rig gets his act together and can build his mma career.  better career move then sitting in a brazilian prison.

It is weird it's an 8 year old charge that he was already convicted for. He actually served a sentence for it and spent 24 months under house arrest. He moved 8 months into his sentence which his lawyers said would be OK but now 7 years later it has become an issue.

Falcao should drop to 170.  Need a good cops n robbers fight with Paulo Thiago.
