Fan Steals Charles Oliveira’s Glasses at UFC 269 [WATCH]

Getty Charles Oliveira enters the Octagon during UFC 269 on December 11, 2021.

A fan stole the glasses right off of lightweight champion Charles Oliveira’s face at UFC 269.

“Du Bronx” notched his first-ever title defense during the main event on December 11, 2021. He fought and defeated No. 1-ranked lightweight Dustin Poirier, taking out “The Diamond” in the third round with a rear-naked choke.

The glasses incident happened as Oliveira walked out of the Octagon toward the back area of the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. As he engaged with fans, one reached out and pulled the glasses right off of Du Bronx’s face. Oliveira immediately tried to find the fan who did it, and although the following video doesn’t capture him retrieving the glasses, he confirmed to the media later on that he did in fact get them back.

Oliveira Extended His Submission Record & Win Streak

GettyTony Ferguson and Charles Oliveira face off during the UFC 256 weigh-in at UFC APEX on December 11, 2020 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Du Bronx has had one of the most stunning career turnarounds in UFC history. For the first part of his UFC tenure, the Brazilian was relatively inconsistent, going 10-8 in his first 19 promotional bouts. One fight was ruled a no contest.

But since his last loss, which was at the hands of Paul Felder in 2017, Oliveira has rattled off 10 victories in a row, with nine of them coming way by finish.

In fact, Oliveira holds the record for most submissions and finishes in UFC history. He holds notable wins over Poirier, Michael Chandler and Tony Ferguson. The Brazilian has a professional MMA record of 32-8 with one no contest.

He won the lightweight belt in May 2021 when he defeated Chandler by second-round TKO.
