Pavao made the most out of his first MMA appearance after competing twice on the regional scene in grappling bouts for Cage Titans where he competed to a draw at Cage Titans Combat Night 3, and picked up a heel hook submission win at April’s Cage Titans 52 event.
Cage Titans has featured many fighters who made their way to the UFC, including Rob Font, Randy Costa, and Jay Perrin.
