“He put on the Flamengo shirt, which is a really great team in Brazil, but that will never reach the feet of Corinthians. I’m Corinthians, I’m for real. My spirit is Corinthians, I am an ambassador for Corinthians. Fools are the people who believe he is a flamengo player because he put on a Flamengo shirt to provoke me“, stated Charles Do Bronx about Gaethje.
The Brazilian continued commenting on the controversy: “He put on the Flamengo shirt to provoke me and it hasn’t changed a thing, I’m just happier because I can see that he’s trying to get into my head somehow, like saying I’m going to “go through hell”, I’ve never even come close to that . The man upstairs takes care of me and he never let me get anywhere near it“.
From the Bronx on the fight against Gaethje in the UFC!
“He is a very tough guy, who walks forward, as I also walk forward. He’s a guy that everyone says has good wrestling, a good hand, but I see the other side. What is the other side? His name is Charles Oliveira, he is an MMA fighter, a complete guy, both standing and on the ground. My mind is armored, my spirit is armored, I’m entering one more time with God“, explained Charles Do Bronx of Gaethje.

The current UFC lightweight champion also took the opportunity to project his strategy against Gaethje: “I believe so much in the knockout, I believe so much in my hand! I believe I have many more weapons than he does. But I’m an MMA fighter, I don’t waste an opportunity, and whatever comes along, we’ll make it happen. The important thing is to see my team happy, I’m happy and my arm is raised“.
