The athlete appeared taking an outdoor boxing class where he lives in the interior of São Paulo. “Today was another day of training with our heavyweight”, they wrote in the caption.

It is worth remembering that Maguila was diagnosed with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), which is an incurable disease and the cause may have been the blows he received to the head during his years of fighting.

“He was calm, thank God, I think knowing the process, his journey. I said: ‘I’ll be back soon’. And he: ‘It’s good’. So I said: ‘Stay with God’. And he replied: ‘Thank you, go with God’. That was the last time I spoke to my brother.”she said.

Then, she reflected on the death of her brother, who had multiple organ failure after battling colon cancer. “We all go one day, but he had God’s time for it to be peaceful and peaceful, together with his children and grandchildren.
