Charles Oliveira has revamped his look by dyeing his hair blonde, ahead of his UFC 317 bout against Ilia Topuria for the vacant lightweight championship.
The blonde hair color has become a trademark for 'Do Bronx,' as he managed to turn his career around and capture the lightweight strap with the blonde hair in the past.
Oliveira is coming into his ufc-predictions-ufc-317-ilia-topuria-vs-charles-oliveira" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-is-sponsored="false">upcoming bout on the back of a unanimous decision victory against Michael Chandler at UFC 309. He has been granted another title shot following Islam Makhachev’s move up to welterweight and the subsequent vacating of the lightweight title. Now 35, the Brazilian is entering the twilight of his MMA career, and this could very well be his final opportunity to recapture UFC gold.
Oliveira was recently seen in a video sitting calmly on his phone while a hairdresser dyed his hair blonde.
