Happy Birthday to Marco Ruas, the legendary "King of the Streets"! Ever since your epic victory at UFC 7 back in September 1995—where you showed everyone that street toughness and Brazilian grit could dominate inside the octagon—you've been an inspiration. Your fierce leg kicks still echo through MMA history!Even today, fighters look up to your pioneering spirit as one of early MMA's true trailblazers. While others were figuring out rules, you were busy rewriting them with style (and a few bruised opponents). Here's wishing you another year filled with happiness—and fewer challengers brave enough to test those famous kicks!
