Brazil: When It Hurts The mission: Infiltrate the birthplace of ultimate fighting—with your girlfriend. The objective: Gain the heart of a fighter without losing your dignity. Text by John Falk Photographs by Cia de Foto
This is me in the main Chute Boxe school in Curritiba, Brazil. It's the Saturday morning before the fight in Guarapuava. I came in for a little morning workout and ended up wailing on the heavy bag to the point where I felt like I was going to puke. Here I'm just absolutely drenched and sucking in air. –Writer John Falk
