In this age of litigation, it’s become commonplace for tight personal and professional relationships to end in lawsuits. Unfortunately, the world of MMA may not be immune to this epidemic.
Last Sunday, Wanderlei Silva’s official Twitter account stated that his former personal trainer and close friend, Rafael Alejarra, is suing the former Pride ace over a business matter. Silva’s verified account displayed two messages to its followers concerning the situation.
I got a citation from the labor court of law of Porto Alegre. Who might have filed a labor suit against me in Porto Alegre? said Silva’s Twitter account in Portuguese.
Stated Silva’s Twitter in another post: I only had a physical trainer who I fed, housed and gave a car plus $4000 a month, working or not. How people are, huh? It was him.
Silva and Alejarra began their working relationship in November 2005 after being introduced by a mutual friend. It wasn’t long before Alejarra relocated from his hometown of Porto Alegre to Curitiba in order to devote more time to training The Axe Murderer.
