“In reality, I trained to do this. I trained to dominate from start to finish, I trained for this, I trained not to make mistakes. And if you look at my last fights, I always tried not to make mistakes. And that's what you do. You can't make mistakes, or be forced with the strikes,” said Charles do Bronx.
The new BMF champion also highlighted versatility as a fundamental part of his game. According to Charles, the team works to ensure he is prepared for any scenario inside the octagon, whether exchanging blows standing up or taking the fight to the ground, always with the goal of evolving and presenting an increasingly better version with each fight.
“If we’re going to fight (standing up), we’re going to fight. If we’re going to go to the ground, we’re going to go to the ground. Always evolving. That’s what you see. It’s training, evolving, getting better all the time. And whatever you need to do, we do it,” concluded the new BMF champion.
