Rafael Cordeiro is a Muay Thai and vale tudo fighter from Curitiba, Brazil. Was the IVC lightweight champion in 1999 while fighting out of the world famous Chute Boxe Academy. Is currently one of the head trainers at Chute Boxe.
The Rafael Cordeiro team first made a name for themselves in the MMA world during the late 1990s in the Brazilian vale tudo promotion known as the IVC. With an aggressive and physical style focused around their muay thai skills, Chute Boxe fighters captured three of the four belt titles in the promotion (Wanderlei Silva winning the light heavyweight belt, Jose "Pele" Landi-Jons winning the middleweight belt, and Rafael Cordeiro winning the lightweight belt). The promotion ended up serving as a spring board for the Chute Boxe team (as well as many other Brazilian MMA stars) into the lucrative Japanese MMA market
