UFC veteran Vagner Rocha returns to wrestling with a victory six months after heart failure
In the main event of Flo Grappling's WNO 29 on July 26, Vagner Rocha returned to the competition with a victory and Kit Dale defeated a decision in the main event.
As a former double silver medal winner at ADCC, after he only earned the second of these two performance last year, the Brazilian is still an incredibly high -ranking grappler on 43.
Rocha's career ended almost earlier than he expected when he revealed earlier this year that he had been admitted to the hospital with heart failure.
He previously participated four times in the UFC Octagon, opposite Donald Cerrone and Jonathan Brookins before he made a short return in 2014, where he was defeated by Jake Matthews.
Rocha withdrew from MMA in 2017, but was very successful in the Grijpwereld, after he had previously participated in the UFC Fight Pass Invitational.
In a competitive main event, Rocha received the decision about Dale after a strong start of the matchup that enabled him to control more of the game.
Vagner Rocha headed the card next to his daughter
Vagner Rocha's return to the main event of WNO 29 was not only a huge moment for him after the adversity through which he fought in 2025.
It also gave the Brazilian the opportunity to surpass the card alongside his daughter, Jasmine Rocha.
She was submitted in the Co-Main event in Miami and lost to Adele Fornarino via Aoki Lock.
In recent years she has earned stage finishes on ADCC and the IBJJF world championships thanks to the training under her father.
