Charles do Bronx became a big target in UFC. After the controversy with the weigh-in and the loss of the lightweight title, the category was left without a belt owner and, in this way, the Brazilian became the number 1 candidate to regain the belt. However, whoever is below him wants to get past his opponents and become one of the greats in Ultimate.
In an interview with “American Espn”, Makhachev spoke again about Charles do Bronx and can’t wait to face his opponent. The Russian is one of Oliveira’s main rivals in the category and is on a streak of 10 consecutive victories. Therefore, the fighter is sure that he can beat the Brazilian in a possible fight on the 22nd of October, at UFC 281.

We don’t have a champion. Charles is a challenger. That’s why it’s going to be for the title. I deserve. I have a streak of 10 straight wins“, he stated.
In addition, Makhachev warned that Charles do Bronx is not a professional and asked the opponent to forget about other UFC rivals: “(Charles) said I don’t deserve this, but he’s asking about Nate Diaz and Conor (McGregor). I think Charles is the number 1 candidate right now. We don’t have a champion because he didn’t make weight. he is not a professional“.
In addition, with Charles’ good phase, much has been said about a possible fight between the Brazilian and Nurmagomedov. The Russian is one of the historic UFC fighters, but he stopped competing and should no longer face Do Bronx. Makhachev mocked a possible fight between the two and highlighted that it would be something easy for Khabib.
“This is an easy fight for Khabib. Khabib had the most dominant grappling at the top. He’ll knock you down and keep you there. Very easy. Honestly, I think this is a very easy fight for Khabib. All the pressure (from Charles) would not work against Khabib because Khabib pressures all of his opponents (…). We don’t have to say that Khabib is going to beat Charles. I will beat Charles. And everyone will understand. Honestly, I believe I can take this guy out, and I really want to take him out in grappling, in his area. I know I can do this“, finished.
This isn’t the first time Makhachev has taunted Charles of the Bronx!
Charles do Bronx’s rival is currently fourth in the lightweight rankings and wants to show the Brazilian that he is better than his rival. Makhachev took advantage of Oliveira’s tweet about facing Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz on the same UFC night and recalled that the possible opponent that he is afraid to face him in the Octagons.
Charles from the Bronx, it’s funny to see you challenging Nate Diaz, who hasn’t won a fight in years, and at the same time saying I have to conquer something. Just say you’re afraid of losing. Your jiu-jitsu won’t work in a fight with me, and you know it“, wrote.
