Chosen for his first defense of the lightweight belt (up to 70,3kg), Do Bronx once again stole the show and silenced critics in the confrontation against Dustin poirier. The favorite of the Brazilian fans, the champion did well and submitted the North American, favorite at the bookmakers, maintaining his reign.

If on one side Charles celebrates, fans of Amanda nunes were hatched last weekend. That's because the absolute legend of women's MMA ended up suffering her first defeat in more than seven years and saw her throne taken by the underdog, Julianna Pena.

The episode dealt with the future of both Do Bronx and the 'Lioness'. Who should be the lightweight champion's next opponent? Should Amanda ask for an immediate rematch? All of this can be seen in this chapter.

The week's agenda has also been updated. Listeners can check out all the most important things happening in the world of martial arts this Saturday (18).
