Charles Oliveira is one of the most impressive fighters to ever grace the octagon.

Currently holding the record for the most finishes in UFC history at 20, ”do Bronx” is bound to become a UFC Hall of Famer.

Oliveira has split time between two divisions during his UFC tenure, but found most success in lightweight where he became the champion after stopping Michael Chandler in May 2021. He then submitted prime Dustin Poirer and Justin Gaethje before losing to Islam Makhachev.
