Charles of the Bronx faced Nik lentz for the first time in 2011 and the fight ended with the Brazilian's victory by submission. The result, however, was reversed to a “No Contest” after the Athletic Commission accepted the American's appeal, alleging that an illegal knee applied by Charles was fundamental to his defeat. Information about the rematch between Lentz and Do Bronx was released on the “Combate” channel website.
At 25, Charles of the Bronx has a professional record of 19 wins, four losses and one fight without result. The Brazilian comes from three consecutive victories, over Andy Ogle, Hatsu Hioki and Jeremy Stephens. Already Nik lentz, 30 years old, has a record of 25 wins, six defeats, two draws and one fight without result. The American is coming off a victory over Manny Gamburyan.
