UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira knows he may be in for a wild stand-up war in his next title defense. Paired against former interim title-holder Justin Gaethje at UFC 274, ‘Do Bronx’ appears to be preparing for a brutal fight—at least judging by a series of videos that emerged on his official Instagram account.
The videos posted show Oliveira sparring with no head gear on, and at times even without shin guards. The first one exhibits a couple all out exchanges between Oliveira and a training partner at the legendary Chute Boxe gym, in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Although most of the time the footage shows Do Bronx staying on the feet, the champ threw a reactive double in there too—just for good measure.
