The patience this guy had man. Im so glad he got that title with all the ups and downs he had. Will always be on his side

I like how Charles started working the sub the moment he got lifted up the air. Crazy bjj instinct.

And now the most submission in UFC history...Wow

Patience and hardwork brings you success. Charles oliveira is an example.

Its crazy that Charles been in the ufc for 11 years and yet he is only 31.

From 12-0 to 31-8 He’s suffered some losses but that record is still pretty impressive when you think about a person have 39 fights and being able to win 31 of them. And the fact that he’s a champion kinda is the icing on the cake at this point Update: 32-8

The Day Charles Oliveira made his UFC debut: Dustin Poirier was [7-0] and was fighting outside the UFC Justin Gaethje wasn't an MMA fighter and was competing annually in NCAA Division l Wrestling Championships Beneil Dariush was [1-0] and was fighting outside the UFC Michael Chandler was [3-0] and was fighting outside the UFC Islam Makhachev made HIS MMA DEBUT Tony Ferguson was [9-2] and was fighting outside the UFC Rafael Dos Anjos was [14-4] and had recently fought at (UFC 112) ✅ Dan Hooker was 3-3 and was fighting outside the UFC Conor McGregor was [3-1] and was fighting outside the UFC Gregor Gillespie wasn't an MMA fighter but was in the process of transitioning Khabib was [8-0] and was fighting outside the UFC Eddie Alvarez was [20-2] and was fighting outside the UFC Kevin Lee wasn't an MMA fighter Paul Felder wasn't an MMA fighter Put some respect on Oliveiras name 👈

Bjj, The art of folding clothes, with people still in them

Man he really was a broomstick back then.

We must all appreciate this man for always having entertained us, and he is always so nice and humble :-)

i still remember this fight. i was amazed at how young Charles was entering the UFC, i would’ve never thought at the time that he’d be a champion

He was a purple belt at this time. Let that sink in.

His fight with khabib would have been legendary.

People like Olives, who came in undefeated, prove how tough it is to stay that way in the UFC.

I think he will make dustin tap!

This Charles guy seems to have the potential to be a champ

Debuted so long ago Joe still had hair…

So happy for him. Finally getting recognised as the best in the fight game. His growth is immense. We truly love Charles Oliveira. Love from 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

This guy's good. He could be champ one day On a serious note....debuting against Darren Elkins is tough. That's a W that aged well

11 years of hard work, next time you feel like giving up remember that Olivera didn't give up for 11 YEARS

I really wish he could run it back with Holloway and get that one back. At the time, the majority of the fan base didn't see how crazy of a fight that was. Only the ones who saw Oliveira's potential. That is an interesting matchup I'd like to see play out.

I was there that night at the Sports Arena and that submission looked so slick from our seats. My homie and I were blown away with his work. I have been a fan since and it’s so cool to see how far Do Bronx has come in his UFC career. What a legend.

Charles Oliveira and Darren Elkins are freaking legends... still going strong 12 years later

Oliveira is one of the most likeable athletes and human beings

Wait wtf this is my first time hearing Charles speak English and it's in his debut fight lmaooo

First time I see a UFC fighter leaving/releasing his opponent right as he taps, not waiting to see if the judge noticed. Mighty respect

As Rogan said, outstanding technique by this young Charles Oliveira. This kid has a bright future, maybe UFC Lightweight champ at some point.

feel weird seeing Elkins without his iconic "The Damage" Tattoo

Oliveira been around forever and gladly he finally got the title. One of the most deserving title holder!

Honestly, I could watch this over and over again. Proud of Charles. Hope he surprises everyone and reigns as champ for a long time. You know he’ll just give the money back to his family and favela

God damn that was his debut and at just 20 years old...that's pretty impressive

Can't wait to see him fighting against Dustin.

Taking somebody down just to immediately get submitted has got to hurt emotionally more than anything. You don't even realize you just sealed your own fate lmao

Charles Oliveira did a sick ass Triangle Armbar combination in his debut 40 seconds into the fight.

This man is an inspiration and a motivation to many people 🙌

Every time I hear Mike Goldberg...the more I appreciate Jon Anik

During these 11 years Bruce Buffer aged much more than Olivs. Announcing is a tough job.

Young Jason Herzog checking on Oliveira before stepping in the Octagon. Both made it after all these years

Man went through it all and made it to the top, my favorite fighter on the roster

Perhaps the greatest championship win of all time. Between coming back from the brink to finish his opponent to the utterly grateful gratitude and appreciation he showed after winning. Taking place years after his initial UFC debut and numerous setbacks that could probably have led one to believe he'd never be a champion.

Oliveira has come such a long way with his striking. Awesome to see.

The best is you see him run around with joy like a child. He looked just like that when they presented him the title. He just rose up jumped on top of that mountain and said, I'm never coming down from here. Ever !

biggest difference for Oliveira is he was walking into the lightweight ring back then at 154lbs now he walks in at 174lbs

Is was at this event and to watch Oliveira’s evolution from debut to champion has been a real pleasure.

Elkins has had some great moments and fights. Him vs Bectik was awesome

That was simply amazing! Perhaps the greatest technical fighter in the world 🤔

Gotta respect The Damage for still being in the UFC and still getting wins💯

I'm really happy for him. He never gave up

Why is this fight being posted? Dustin vs Oliveira being announced soon? 👀

How can you not love the UFC and its fighters? Only problem is fighters' pay✌🏿

What a story: Him & Poirier, two men who have dedicated themselves to this sport, meeting for the belt after over 10 years of grinding in the UFC 😍🏆🔥🇧🇷🇺🇸

that classic tale of the tape theme takes me back

got to see this man become champion in houston, tx. crazy to know he fought out of there.

Poetry in motion with his ground game,I remember this fight too.

Glad they changed the announcement from "tap out" to submission by"

These old fights are new to me so i'm lucky in that sense 😊

Damn im getting teary eyed watching this

Damn! That was an impressive debut!

This were the Born of a Legend & The Champ Nowadays. *Charles Do Bronx Oliveira is a True History of Superation*

When the legend made his debut

Beautifull beautifull beggining yes sir!

Already promoting the best title fight of the year

Perfect

Idk why but I really enjoy hearing Charles talk lol

i want to see charles vs machachev in the future. it would be a grappling pleasure

Absolute animal man, so happy that he's the champion!

What a debut!

Beautiful 🤩

The way Charley Olives post his left hand on Elikins hip when he had him in the air... he instinctively knew he would need space to shrimp to regain guard. That was sick!

It almost feels like yesterday since he submitted Gaethje and Usman. Now he just added Ngannou to that list. What a champ. The quadruple champ.

How chilled Bruce was now he's super hyped😂

" you speak english , thank you " i'm dead

Well done what a hold ♥️♥️♥️

young monster, Good Technic and idea at under pressure, 👌👍👍👍

He’s the Champ!

Quite possiblity one of the BEST submission artist in UFC history

I'm from Future , This guy will dominate ufc light weight division and a guy from Dagestan will make him tap. Thank you

Unreal He is fucking special In every area

talk about never giving up on your dreams!

Dustin is my guy but DoBronx is my favorite lightweight he have grown soo much I hope he hold on to the title for a while

You knoe Charles is an OG walking out in dethrone apparel. The good old days

He did that so fast

Super Respect 🎆🙏

So happy for this man

FLAWLESS VICTORY

Young GOAT

Its crazy how active Oliveira was even after all these years, he still doing great and even became champion.

Bro. That was some slick jits. He shrimped in the air ready for the landing.

27 fights in 11 years. For a champion thats unheard of.

He is the finest submission artist of the world ❤❤❤❤❤❤

So so undrrated fighter idint known him before until he fought tony then i saw what he can do sseing him cry run same win firt title is simply a joy
