GB Interview: The tale of two brothers – Braulio and Victor Estima

I have absolutely no idea why they need further introducing. Seriously. Who would read this website and not know the Estima brothers? There is much information about their wins, skills and write-ups. But I believe that we still need to let the world know how awesome the two brothers are.

But what better way to introduce them than through a good old fashioned interview?

Well, yes. That’s a great way. But to give you brief description, let’s just say that these two are one of the who’s who in the sport. Braulio having won his MMA debut, and Victor being the 2012 European open champ.
