The 2020 Brazilian elections did not end well for MMA personalities Iuri Alcantara, Rudimar Fedrigo and Carmem Franca on Nov. 15.
Alcantara, who was released by the UFC earlier this year, hoped to become a city councillor in his hometown Soure, but only received 184 of 16,518 votes on Sunday, half of the necessary votes to secure a seat in the city council.
“Marajo” (36-10, 1 no contest) made a name for himself under the WEC and UFC banners since 2010, scoring wins over the likes of Ricardo Lamas, Joe Soto, Brad Pickett, Wilson Reis and Luke Sanders.
