The docureality Lutando pela Tropa was launched at the Marine Corps General Command in Brazil earlier this month. It is run by Instituto Formando Campeões and Gringo Fight Championship with the Brazilian Navy.

Its goal is to form the first Brazilian Military amateur MMA team for the 2027 Military World Games. The six winners will become Third Sergeants of the Navy, with eight years of military career focused on high performance. Men's and women's categories are included.

Former UFC fighter Poliana Botelho attended and welcomed the project, saying she skipped amateur MMA and missed it. She said: "Now Brazil flies even more" (translated). The finals are set for Dec. 5 at the Gringo Fight Championship special edition at Fortaleza de São José.
