UFC lightweight contender Charles Oliveira speaks with MMA Fighting’s José Youngs about his undying love for all things Pokémon and to show off his massive new leg tattoo.
Oliveira (36-11, 1 NC), also a former lightweight champion, is slated to challenge for Max Holloway’s BMF title in the main event of UFC 326 in Las Vegas on Saturday. In his most recent fight, “Do Bronx” got back into the win column with a dominant win over Mateusz Gamrot at UFC Rio in October 2025. To date, Oliveira holds several notable UFC records, such as most submission wins (17), most finishes (21), and most bonuses (21).
