Every time somebody like Charles goes from where he was kind of up and down to the man, people say he was on steroids. Right? So how good does it feel to like have that when it shows that you weren't on steroids?

So many people said it. So, you know, that's interesting, when a guy got a recognition of this, when a person goes to pick, and valleys in a career, and, of a sudden, give that ingrenada and there a lot of victory consecutive the first thing is what? The first thing is what?

He's doing something, he's talking about something. So, poe, how legal is receiving this recognition that year in the past because the person enchews, and I think there

other thing. With certain, it's very important. It's part of what we're talking, of the legado, and all we're going to do that's very important for me to receive. This is in this moment

now, it was very important to me to see, to me, to show, I mean a synony every time, Now he said, eight years, working in book of the son, what happened?

Of course, it's so important, that we always talk about the fact that we want to leave a legacy. So this is proof that you wanted, that the work that we put in, and as it was mentioned, when the hat, the jacket was handed to me, eight, nine years doing this.

Yeah. And always clean and always doing this. So it's the legacy we want to believe in the impossible, right? Like what he did was kind of impossible. Go from being up and down to becoming the championship. The people don't want to believe

in the impossible. of high, and you've been transformed in a person that you transformed. The people don't care believe. This is real. The people, in reality, they don't want to work

to be able to do it. So, they simply think of the way. They want to judge. They want to put you about to some. I think of you're back to see that it would be able. For real, people,

people, they don't want to work. Yeah. They don't want to put in the work. They don't want to, they want to judge. They want to judge you. And that's why they're, they don't want to, they don't understand. They want to put you down.

They want to put you down to dumps. And I put the work in and I got where I got to it. So I saw this dude's house. Where in the fuck is that in Brazil? Like, seriously. Like, where does this guy live in Brazil? Like, somebody got to tell me where this dude lives in Brazil? I see your house.

No way. The question, where is, where is your house? I never saw a house of this. Where is you more? where the house that I've seen in the social. I'm not in Guarajas,

now I'm in a condominio, in Acapulco, God my best was, I'm going to have this house that you're old, what you're talking. It was a realization of a dream, to be able to get to get to something that I never thought in my life, I'd want to get to

get. You're in Guarajah, actually, Brazil Beach area in the state of San Paulo, it's actually in a gated community, in a Kando, called A Capo. It's a place I've always wanted to,

Something I've always wanted. God has blessed me. It's a place that I've always wanted to be in my life, in the moment in my life. I've worked for it, and I'm very happy. You know, Charles O'Levara is like he personifies that Brazilian fighting spirit. And even now as not the champion, when we were in Brazil in January, he did an appearance. So many people. What does that mean to him to not only represent the country in a way that he does,

But to get that love back from the people because it looked insane watching him walk through that mall or at least trying to walk through that mall. This was like when the dream team went to playing the Olympic Games. This wasn't normal for a mixed martial arts fighter. Well, you're much of people, but the people also consider you as well as representation of the spirit of the but the you're a lot of the other people, but even not being a champion, we're, we see a second, in 2008, three, in the New Jersey, you know, you're in a shopping? You're going to do a showpene, it's. You go to make a part of the shopping, and we saw the scenes of the people, not just, the people, they're just, you're, the spirit of the but also this love of the

people, you think, this recognition that the people have and for all the everything you've really,

really, happy with what been going going to be not just in Brazil, in Australia, we were

going to the same thing, in Abu Dhab, we were going to the United we were,

we're going to happen, the United and it's not just the classer not the Chalels is

a world, it's all the places that we have to have to have a good to

we maintain our feet on the ground, to know where we're out of where we're out of where we got to get to get to get to get, but I'm very happy. So much gratitude and so happy. And you know, this, obviously because of this happening, but it's not just in Brazil. We went to Australia, the same thing happened.

We went to the United States. We go to Tammals. It happens as well. So, you know, Charles is not just a Brazilian fighter now. It's a global fighter than everyone. We always have to be very focused. Not that like getting into our heads. But I'm so happy that this happens everywhere we go.

Let's go back to Abu Dhabi, right? The fight with Makachev. He started off in the first round. He takes you down and it was a competitive first round on the ground. He took no damage. Where do you think it kind of turned for you? And what have you done to improve to make sure that you don't make the mistakes that you made in that fight this weekend against Binald-Darouchev.

Let's go back to what happened. It's just when you, when you, when you, it was a lot competitive. The things not were like they were until the final of the fight. The things were like they were in paris. Then, then, you're going to be able to do. How do you do? How do you do not happen to be in the war? I think you're to put it in time.

Look, it's not a moment, are moments. There in Abu Dhab, I don't was there. Not I was. And today is a new Chars. Chares with sixes of victory, Moshares who has a dream to star a champion, with a once a chance, that's a point to do with a story.

Every fight is a different fight. That fight was not me because I wasn't there. This is a different fight. This is a fight, a patrol that's ready, that's hungry, patrols that's eager, and they want to make things happen to be a champion again. Why was he not there?

Right, in those big moments, right? As a guy that was a champion, and that fought at the highest level, you gotta be there in those moments. Like, why was he not there in that fight? Why did you not there in that fight? Why that you don't have there? A man who's just many,

grandiose, enormous, for you, was champion. You have to be there, in that moment. Why you not were there? What happened? I don't say to say, I don't say to say. You've never accompanied many times. You've seen various, you've seen various.

I'm not there. I'm not there. I don't know, I just, I just, I've I stayed three months to think, why I don't was there. I don't know what is done, I don't know what happened. You've seen so many in my fights,

you've seen my career, I wasn't there. I stopped for three months, step back, and tried to understand why I was not there. I was not there. I have no reason. He must all the respect of the world. He is a great, a great champion. But I don't know, I don't have there.

I don't have there. He deserves all the respect in the world. It's a great fighter, a great champion. Yeah. But I was not there. I was not there. I didn't fight. I was never, was he ever able to find the answer in that time where he's so searching to figure it out?

Did he find that answer to try to ensure that, you know, when we end that this weekend, you don't start to feel the same things? And in this period that you've got to be able to be able to ask us. You've got to find the process. You've got to understand why, justly to not. Why do you feel this? Simply I'm not just, what's what's what, we've got to go, we're thinking in front, I'm thinking

now, this is, this is just, let's go to the next, some, there's a music in Brazil that's the next, because the next, then I'm at this time,

go to the next, the next, and now, Sabe, Benderioz. There's no point of looking back right now. Yeah, there's no, this is, it's gone, what passed is past, like you say in Brazil,

um, we don't, we can't, We can't be worried about what happened because we have to look into what's next. There's a song in Brazil that says, you know, let's go to the next one because after the next one, the next one is the one for the next one. Yeah, it never, you'll linger. It just keeps on it. So you need to worry about the next challenge they have.

So you got Benil Darius in fronty. He says today I saw him state that he feels he does everything better than Mokachev. What do you see in Benil Daryush? Benile Uyush, to go ahead. Today, he said in an interview that he thinks he does everything than the Islam-Makashav. What do you think,

the United States? I think he is a great not a great supporter, he deserves his respect of him, but I don't I'm not I'm not too what he will play. Auxarles aggressive,

a charles, ready to wincer, a chair that will set with the arm up with a arm. We can say, what we want to say

in a sense that I respect him a lot again, I hope respect the role for him. But I'm sincerely, It doesn't matter what he thinks we want to tell you what matters is Charles The Charles that what's gonna not what he's gonna bring to the tip of what I'm gonna take to him Aggressive hungry yes and someone that's gonna come out with his hand raised after and that's the style that makes you so fun

Right no matter what happens you continue to march guys down do you still fight him in that same way do you pressure him because he's a guy that has been willing to trade in those exchanges and as time has shown what's really Some really high level strikers, Dustin Porreier, Michael Chandler, Justin Gaiti. When they fight you in that way, they don't tend to hold up very well because of your pressure and your power. And this is your style of the aggressive, is that you're going to be that's going to be that's a lot of that we're so DirtyEgoathe. He said that not have to be the way to go to the way,

it's the way to be to go. Now, all the guys with you have loved who go to, go to go to try and attack you going to back, he said, Dustin Boyd, Justin Gage, Michael Scheller, not did much certain to them. How how it works with Daniel? Daniel, a guy who goes to go to go ahead. He starts to go and grow up, so it's a great

lot, so there's going to go to front. I'm going to be going to this. I'm going to this spirit, you know, and send him to do it to do. I'm a good for this. He's a guy that likes to press forward. He likes to start up hot. And then I'm a guy who likes to warm up

and get to my fight, listen, it's two trucks just going at each other. So I'm ready. This flame has rekindled and I think is back at it. I'm ready for it. I was going to ask him that. Like I saw something he said he's ready to get his belt back. Before a guy that has done what Charles O'Levara has done, it really is astounding. I took a picture of this.

I want you to read this to him as I say him. But Charles O'Levara is now, and I don't know, let me make sure this microphone still working. Charles Oliver is 12 and 2 since he returned the lightweight. Charles Oliver has 19 stoppages. That's the most in the company's history. Tell him that. Let's let them that. Let's talk about what I'd like to read for you.

What's here? You're 12 and 2, 2nd from the division, 12 victories and 2nd. You've had 19 or 19? 19. Most in the company's history. In the history, most stopages,

that are that, obviously. You've made the lot, to stop, not even to end, more than anybody in the story of the organization. More submissions than anybody with 16. More finalization than what, you know, in the story, 16. Most submissions in Lightway history.

Most submissions in Featherway history. In the division, he also, penit, too. Dude, 21 victories, fifth most in the U.S. history. Second most wins in Lightway history. Like, this guy has done just about everything. What is the thing that motivates him to continue to perform at this level and get up in the morning when in reality he's sleeping

on some pretty comfortable sheets right now right he's living the life what gets a guy like this up every day to come out here and fight the most dangerous men in the world is it just that championship and but the conversation? The conversation said, so I'm just saying, I'm going to be in a few to pick this syndrome of the new, so let's go back. It's 5th with more victories in the 2nd in the division, the guy who's There was everything that you You've got,

and thenquist, after all of this, you know, the lansol that you're that's not doing the best of the most of the you're doing

you're doing so what you can't get this camera a ambulance that you have every day, for you have to what you

I'm going to finish this fight, then I come out with my arm raised, and afterwards, I'm going to be in the other line, I'm next to the title. Yeah, what about the BMF title? You should be a BMEA? What do you think about this like that? If he wins, some people are saying that he might need another one,

that those guys may get the title fight, like, what does he think about that? Yeah, because there's people who are Borgiana that if you win, you, you still, you have to get to get of someone to do with, what do you think?
