Brazilian fighter Leandro "Feijão" Caetano de Souza, 26, died today right before the weigh ins for tomorrow's Shooto Brazil 43. 



According to his teammate André Chatuba he was feeling ill before the weigh ins, passed out, and was taken to the nearby hospital, where he died of still unknown causes. Shooto organizer, Dedé Pederneiras, confirmed his death on his facebook page hours ago.


That's shocking and really sad news.
