•    Once fought Anderson Silva in bare-knuckle tournament for 27 minutes (fight was scheduled for 30 minutes). Said Camoes, “This was 27 minutes of war and he beat me when I couldn’t defend anymore due to fatigue. I do not regret taking the fight. That was amazing to debut against a champion like Silva, who became a friend afterwards. I would do it the same way if I had that chance again.”
