Close to defining the next step in lightweight (up to 70,3kg.), Charles of the Bronx gave his opinion on a possible increase in Alexander Volkanovsky, who holds the featherweight belt (up to 65,7kg.). When asked about a possible dispute, the Brazilian tried to praise the Australian, but highlighted the difficulty of the category in which he stands out.
“He is a very tough guy, who is making history in the lower (featherweight) category. I think everyone who thinks about moving up to the top category (lightweight) has to think hard, because it's very difficult. But it would be a good fight. Why not make it happen? And the business”, stated Do Bronx in an interview with 'The Schmo'.

It is not yet known when the Brazilian will return to the octagon or who his opponent will be.
