Funny thing, you'll feel more alive there than almost anywhere else. Brazil is not without its problems, but it's a fucking incredible country. My first trip there when I was 21 changed my life, no bull. I love the place.

I'd like to hear more! Please elaborate.

 

[Kono dio da!]

The worse background you come from, the cooler it is when you make it

Only an asshole wouldn't be happy for him. Wait, was chael lying when he said that oliveira still lives in the hood?

I suppose you're correct since your fight or flight instinct will be triggered often there, making you feel very much alive indeed compared to the safety of more wealthy countries.

Something tells me he will live somewhere much nicer now

 

[Mesos]

Dudes got a nice house with pool now, a ranch, and expensive race horses. He deserves it, really grinded his way to the top

Pretty racist bro

Really happy for Charles. Hope he can stay at the top for a few fights and earn some much-deserved bank for all of his effort over the years. Classy guy with humble roots, what's not to like?

Is this in the Bronx?

Man I'm so proud of this dude. The sport hasn't had many stories like this in the past few years. We needed this, I'm so glad for him. Just a shame we couldn't see him against Khabib. That is such an intriguing match up.

"here's the kitchen..." points to a wall.

Looks like 5 stars hotel compare to Francis home

Amazing how much of Africa is still poverty stricken even with the influx of TONS of foreign aid.

Well, in that case, Francis offered a nice villa to his momma but she refused to leave ,she is used to this and doesn't want to change her habits.
