<p>By Mauro Ellovitch</p>
<p>I woke up on Sunday overcome with sadness. That tightening in the chest, that groan in the stomach, that bitter taste in the throat. Nothing could get my spirits up. And to think that I had so much to say about UFC 147.</p>
<p>I could write about the dense crowd that packed the gymnasium, turning a blind eye to all the naysaying in the lead-up to the event. Having been at UFC Rio and this latest UFC, in Belo Horizonte, I could write about all the notable differences between the Rio crowd and Minas Gerais crowd (the former a lot more lively and heated, the latter more focused and respectful—especially when it came to the American fighters on the card). The reactions from Thiago “Bodão” and Marcos “Vina” would yield a few good lines. The unbelievable battle between Cezar “Mutante” and Sérgio was worth a chronicle on its own. Just as the public’s “woe” about Vitor Belfort was. But none of that cheered me up on that overcast Sunday morning. I was inconsolable.</p>
<p>Ever since it was announced that Belo Horizonte would host UFC 147, I was anxious to see Wanderlei Silva the legend fight in “my back yard.” I’m from São Paulo but have been a resident of Minas Gerais for the past seven years. I’ve lived in a number of regions in this gigantic state and learned to love it as my home. Early in the week leading up to June 23, I could hardly contain my anxiousness to be near the octagon and witness “The Axe Murderer” chopping down Rich Franklin with his potent knees. Here, on Minas soil!</p>
<p>The distressing outcome of the main event, with Wanderlei losing, took the shine off the event I’d awaited so eagerly. The immortal son of the state of Minas Carlos Drummond de Andrade once said, “I have but two hands and the sentiments of the world.” Wand’s s two hands weren’t enough to carry the weight of the nation’s sentiments. He fought, tried, hit, got hit, tired. And it wasn’t enough for him to win.</p>
<p><iframe title="WAND:  MY HOMETOWN CAMP" width="650" height="366" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SMkYpfSkRXA?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>My friends called me to ask about the fight and I caught myself discussing unreal hypotheses. “What if the second round had gone on another 30 seconds?” “And if that counterstrike had found its mark in the last round?” That’s right. I was suffering from “Fan whose Team Lost Syndrome.”</p>
<p>Anyone out there who cheers for a team (be it MMA, soccer, volleyball, hand shuttlecock) knows what I’m talking about. I’ve been in that mood before, like when São Paulo Football Club lost the final of the 1994 Libertadores Cup, for example.</p>
<p>We felt the defeat of our object as fans as though we ourselves had lost. We play and replay it over in our heads and ask what could have gone differently. For a true MMA fan from way back, watching Wanderlei Silva lose in the Mineirinho Gymnasium was akin to watching the Brazilian national soccer team lose the 1950 World Cup final in Maracanã Stadium.</p>
<p>But that’s what sport and life is made of. Winning and losing. Celebrating and suffering. And mainly, continuing to cheer. I didn’t stop rooting for São Paulo soccer team, nor for the Brazilian national team, and I won’t stop when it comes to Wanderlei Silva. He will always be an idol and a reference in the sport because he has shown unmatched courage.</p>
<p>That’s why I’ll leave it to Guimarães Rosa, Minas Gerais’ greatest author, to conclude for me a lot better than I could do myself: “The course of life wraps everything up. That’s how life is: it goes hot and cold, tightens and loosens, goes calm and then gets restless. What it wants from us is courage.”</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/wanderlei-silvas-two-hands-cant-carry-the-sentiments-of-a-nation/">Wanderlei Silva’s two hands couldn’t carry the sentiments of a nation</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>

<p>Acordei com uma grande tristeza no domingo. Aquele aperto no peito, aquele embrulho no estômago, aquele gosto amargo na garganta. Nada me animava. E pensar que eu tinha tanto a dizer sobre este UFC 147.</p>
<p>Podia escrever sobre a presença maciça do público que lotou o ginásio, contrariando todas as expectativas negativas. Tendo ido ao UFC Rio e a este UFC em BH, podia escrever sobre as notáveis diferenças entre a torcida carioca e a torcida mineira (a primeira muito mais animada e calorosa, a segunda mais concentrada e respeitosa – especialmente em relação aos americanos). As reações de Thiago “Bodão” e Marcos “Vina” renderiam boas linhas. Só a incrível batalha entre Cezar “Mutante” e Serginho já valia uma crônica própria. Assim como a “mágoa” do público com Vitor Belfort. Mas nada disso me empolgava naquela manhã nublada de domingo. Eu estava inconsolável.</p>
<p>Desde que foi anunciado que o UFC 147 seria realizado em Belo Horizonte, fiquei ansioso para ver Wanderlei Silva, a lenda, lutar “no meu quintal”. Sou paulista, mas resido em Minas Gerais há sete anos. Morei em diversas regiões deste estado gigantesco e aprendi a amá-lo como minha casa. No início da semana de 23 de junho, eu mal podia conter a ansiedade para estar próximo ao octógono e ver o “Cachorro Louco” arrasar Rich Franklin com joelhadas potentes. Aqui! Em solo mineiro.</p>
<p>O frustrante resultado da luta principal, com a derrota de Wanderlei, tirou a graça do evento que eu havia esperado tanto. O imortal mineiro Carlos Drummond de Andrade, certa vez, disse: “Tenho apenas duas mãos e o sentimento do mundo”. As duas mãos de Wand não foram suficientes para suportar o peso do sentimento de uma nação. Ele lutou, se esforçou, bateu, apanhou, cansou. E não foi o suficiente para vencer.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" title="WAND:  MY HOMETOWN CAMP" width="650" height="366" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SMkYpfSkRXA?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Meus amigos me ligavam perguntando sobre a luta e eu me pegava discutindo hipóteses irreais. “E se o segundo round tivesse mais 30 segundos?” “E se aquele contragolpe tivesse acertado o alvo no último round?” É. Eu estava sofrendo a “Síndrome do Torcedor de Time que Perdeu”.</p>
<p>Você que torce por algum esporte (seja MMA, futebol, vôlei, peteca) sabe do que estou falando. Eu já passei por humores assim, por exemplo, quando o meu São Paulo Futebol Clube perdeu a final da Copa Libertadores em 1994.</p>
<p>Sentimos a derrota do nosso objeto de torcida como se fosse uma derrota nossa. Vemos e revemos a reprise na nossa cabeça e nos perguntamos o que poderia ter ocorrido diferente. Para o verdadeiro fã antigo de MMA, ver a derrota de Wanderlei Silva no Mineirinho seria equiparável a ver a Seleção Brasileira perder no Maracanã em 1950.</p>
<p>Mas o esporte e a vida são feitos disso. De vencer e de perder. De comemorar e sofrer. E, principalmente, de continuar torcendo. Não parei de torcer pelo São Paulo, nem pela Seleção Brasileira e não o farei em relação a Wanderlei Silva. Ele sempre será um ídolo e uma referência do esporte porque sempre mostrou coragem inigualável.</p>
<p>Por isso, deixo Guimarães Rosa, o maior escritor de Minas Gerais, concluir de uma maneira muito melhor do que eu jamais poderia fazer: “O correr da vida embrulha tudo. A vida é assim: esquenta e esfria, aperta e daí afrouxa, sossega e depois desinquieta. O que ela quer da gente é coragem.&#8221;</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/as-duas-maos-de-wanderlei-silva-nao-suportaram-o-sentimento-da-nacao/">As duas mãos de Wanderlei Silva não suportaram o sentimento da nação</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>

<p>The first female president of Brazil, Dilma Vana Roussef, 63, took office at 4:48 pm on January 1.</p>
<p>At the ceremony – an historic one for the nation – Dilma fit a quote from one of the country&#8217;s greatest writers, João Guimarães Rosa, into her acceptance speech. Words that inspire her and that may perhaps motivate our dear readers.</p>
<p>“The flow of life envelopes everything. Life is like this: it heats up and cools down, it squeezes and then loosens, it becomes calm and then restless. What it wants from us is courage,” said President Dilma, quoting the author of “Grande Sertão: Veredas” (“Great Hinterlands: Swampy Valleys”).</p>
