Jorge Oliveira

[blp03]

Does anyone where I can find the lineage of Professor Jorge Oliveira or does anyone know? I read somewhere that he was awarded his black belt from Carlos Gracie in Brazil but I haven't been able to confirm it. Thanks!

Are you talking about the MMA fighter, Jorge Oliveira who trains with Chute Box USA?

I don't know for sure where Jorge Oliveira got his black belt, but I'm reasonably confident it wasn't from Carlos Gracie, Sr. or Carlos Gracie Jr.

I did see on the interwebs that he competed as part of the Ralph Gracie team for a while, but I don't know whether he came to them as a black belt. He's also done seminars and such for RCJ Machado, so it could be Carlos Machado.

Why are you asking, if you don't mind sharing?

Yes the one from Chute Boxe. I saw that he had given some seminars and was wondering who awarded him his black belt. Thanks for the reply!
