I think the brother means that they lived like common Brazilians They didn’t grow up with the best financial conditions
Make no mistake, this guy is incredible at fighting. Has it all, striking, ground game, ability to finish, heart, cardio, determination. Do Bronx wins on saturday.

The real reason why I love Charles.. walking embodiment of never giving up no matter how bad life knocks us down.. to keep fighting… a kid from the favelas with rheumatic fever & heart murmurs did & he ended up world champion.
When charles gets the strap back and defends, undisputed greatest lw of all time. Dobronx!!! 🇧🇷

6:29 I LOVE origin stories. I think those make you root for, or at least better understand and empathize, with the fighters more. These guys, tough and hardcore as they may be in the octagon and out, are still human.
