Number 13-ranked lightweight Charles Oliveira entered his UFC Brasilia headliner against Kevin Lee on a six-fight win streak. He did leave the empty building adding another victory and by far the biggest of his career.
“Do Bronx” finished the fight in the third round via his signature guillotine choke against the number eight-ranked Lee, which likely catapults him to the top of the rankings. But with this huge win in the books, the 30-year-old Sao Paulo native is already looking at a monumental opportunity for himself, as he calls out the winner of the scheduled title fight between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson at UFC 249.
