Let there be heart. This Tuesday morning (9), Ultimate released the first promotional poster for the UFC 280, which takes place on November 12, in Abu Dhabi. The event is awaited by Brazilian fans as it promotes the confrontation between Charles of the Bronx e Islam makhachev for the lightweight belt (up to 70,3kg.). The São Paulo native also made a point of recording the launch.
No UFC 280, Do Bronx will have the opportunity to retake the lightweight throne after controversially losing it in May due to a questionable failure to make a weight cut. On that occasion, the athlete, despite the psychological shock, performed brilliantly and overcame Justin gaethje, qualifying as a fighter for the then vacant belt.

On the other side of the octagon, Charles will have the promising Islam makhachev. Considered by many as the successor to Khabib Nurmagomedov, the Russian is facing his biggest challenge as a professional in MMA and needs to meet the expectations of both his team and the Ultimate management.
In addition to Do Bronx and his opponent, the UFC 280 will feature another title fight. In the co-main fight, aljamain sterling will put the bantamweight throne (up to 61,2kg.) at stake against the former champion TJ Dillashaw.
