Antoine Jaoude (born January 5, 1977) is Brazilian wrestler and a former mixed martial artist. He fought for the Southern California Condors in the, now defunct, International Fight League. His brother, Adrian, wrestled in WWE under the ring name Arturo Ruas.
Biography
Jaoude was born in Brazil to a Lebanese father and a Brazilian mother. Six months after his birth, his parents went with him to Lebanon to originally visit his paternal family for a short time. However, due to the civil war that broke out while they were there, they were only able to return to Brazil more than 13 years later, when he was 14. He represented Brazil in wrestling as an Olympian in the 2004 Athens Games, where he was the only South American wrestler. He was also a silver medalist in wrestling at the 2003 Pan American Games.
