Charles 'Do Bronx' Oliveira is a 37-year-old Brazilian lightweight and the UFC's all-time leader in submission wins, with 22 of his 37 career victories coming by tap-out. He captured the BMF title with a dominant decision over Max Holloway at UFC 326 in March 2026, avenging a first-round knockout loss to Ilia Topuria the previous June, and now makes his first defense against a featherweight standout moving up in weight.
