main star of UFC 274, held this Saturday (7), in Phoenix (USA), Charles of the Bronx challenged and was answered. After finishing Justin gaethje and, still in the octagon, ask for a confrontation against Conor McGregor, the Brazilian was noticed by the Irish legend. On social media, 'Notório' made considerations for the confrontation.

“I don’t know if I want to cut weight. I'm enjoying the fact that my fitness is like a refrigerator. I feel like I want to perform at this size,” wrote Conor, on his account on Twitter.
Despite being reticent about a possible appearance in the lightweight division (up to 70,3kg), a category in which he has already held the belt, McGregor is not against the confrontation. The fighter then showed himself open to facing the Tupiniquim.
“I would love to face the best Brazilian. I love Brazil and I'm undefeated against Brazilians. I beat them all by knockout. I need to think”, concluded Conor.
MMA legend, McGregor is recovering from a serious injury suffered in July 2021. After fracturing his ankle, the athlete has no prediction on when he will be able to return to active duty.
Brazilian star in the UFC, Do Bronx experienced great emotions during the week of UFC 274. Last Friday (6), the Brazilian ended up losing the belt after failing to meet the scales, in a controversial weigh-in.
With the victory over Gaethje, according to the rules, Charles cannot be considered champion of the division. The triumph, however, qualifies the Brazilian to compete for the title, now vacant, in the under-70,3kg category.
I'm not sure I want to cut the weight. I am really enjoying being built like a refrigerator. I feel I want to fight at this size just to watch it back lol. But I'd love to fight the Brazilian, 100%! I love Brazil and I'm unbeaten against Brazil. All KO's. I've some thoughts to do
