Kevin Lee, the former interim lightweight title challenger went up against Charles Oliveira at the main event of UFC Brasilia. Kevin Lee in a fight against Gregor Gillespie [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Kevin-Lee-in-a-fight-against-Gregor-Gillespie.jpg] Kevin Lee walked in with an insane amount of confidence. He had just handed Gregor Gillespie [https://www.espn.com/mma/fighter/_/id/4021934/gregor-gillespie] the first loss of his career. He knocked him out with a brutal head kick at UFC 244 [https://www.essentiallysports.com/kevin-lee-wants-the-winner-of-khabib-nurmagomedov-vs-tony-ferguson-after-the-emphatic-win-at-ufc-244/]. And coming off that he was riding on a high. ‘The Motown Phenom’ despite all this, unfortunately, missed weight by 2.5 Lbs. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-news-kevin-lee-misses-weight-by-a-huge-margin-at-ufc-brasilia/] This incident left many wondering if the miscalculated weight cut will lead to issues in the fight itself. But the main event proved to be an absolute thriller of a fight. Kevin Lee and Charles Oliveira exchanged some blows and wild shots at each other. The fight also went to the mat and we saw some intense grappling. In round three Lee shot in for the takedown. This gave Charles the opportunity to get a hold on Lee’s neck and lock him in. The Brazilian submission ace quickly secured the hold and within seconds forced Kevin Lee into tapping out. kevin-lee-charles-oliveira [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/kevin-lee-charles-oliveira.jpeg] This came as Lee’s third loss in his last 4 fights. The other two came against Rafael dos Anjos and Al Iaquinta. The only win was against the undefeated Gregor Gillespie. KEVIN LEE MIGHT NOT BE A PART OF THE SCENE FOR A WHILE Following his loss, Lee spoke to a media scrum in relation to him tapping out. He said,” I think lightweight is still my home. You know I just have to fine-tune some things. But I am going to take a long time. I kind of rushed into this fight. It will probably be a good minute before you all see me again. It will probably be a few years or so.” Kevin Lee is a great sportsman. Doesn’t go out finding excuses to blame his loss on. He owned up to his shortcomings. Blames no one but himself and that shows what a great sport he is. He might take a break for a few years off. Should he?

<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Oliveira: Net Worth 2024, Record, Salary, and Endorsements</strong></p>

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Charles Oliveira? </strong></h2>
While former UFC champion Charles Oliveira reigned at the top of the lightweight division for a brief time, his legacy is cemented in stone with his numerous exploits in the promotion. The BJJ ace holds multiple records in the promotion that testify to his exceptional fighting acumen and pedigree as a fighter.

Now, 'Do Bronx' is all set to fight against Arman Tsarukyan at UFC 300. The lightweight bout is one of the most exciting ones to go down at the prestigious pay-per-view and it will be watched by millions of people across the globe. So here's more about Oliveira.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Oliveira's Early Life</strong></h2>
He was born in the favela of Vicente de Carvalho in Guaruja, Sao Paulo, and aspired to be a professional soccer player. But his dreams were soon shattered after he was diagnosed with rheumatic fever and heart murmur.
<figure class="jsx-b9c5e7fc3c08d611">
<div class="jsx-61443672 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-61443672" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1232920212.jpg" /></div>
<figcaption>via Getty</figcaption></figure>
His introduction to BJJ came at 12, with his neighbor Paulo working as the catalyst. Despite the meager resources, his family funded his training by selling street snacks and discarded cardboard.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Oliveira’s Girlfriend</strong></h2>
Currently, Oliveira is often spotted with his girlfriend Victoria Brum. The couple became official when the ex-UFC champ posted a picture of them together with the caption <em>“My babe.” </em>But earlier Oliveira was seemingly happily married.

<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2325793" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Untitled-design-1-7-172-560x315.jpg" alt="Charles Oliveira; Vitoria Brum" width="560" height="315" />

Talita Roberta Pereira is also trained in BJJ, like her ex-husband. The couple tied the knot in 2014, and in 2017, the couple was blessed with a beautiful daughter named Tayla. While she never took the professional route in BJJ, she was earlier spotted at the Centro de Treinamento Charles Oliveira Gold Team. According to Ecelebritymirror.com, she worked at the Casa de Saúde Guarujá Hospital. However, despite no official confirmation from either, they seem to have parted ways!
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Oliveira's Net worth in 2024</strong></h2>
According to <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://wealthygorilla.com/charles-oliveira-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wealthy Gorilla</a>, the Brazilian fighter has an estimated net worth of over $5.5 million. The primary source of his revenue remains his fighting purse and bonuses collected from his Octagon fights. He reportedly banked $1.6 million from his fight against <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/islam-makhachev/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Islam Makhachev</a> at UFC 280.

He also reportedly made about $1.3 million for defeating Beneil Dariush in their last fight at UFC 289. Now, he's set to face Tsarukyan. How much money will he make for the fight? One can only wait to figure out but his base salary of at least $100,000 should do him some good going into the fight.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Oliveira's Career timeline</strong></h2>
After producing successful results in BJJ, the 33-year-old shifted his focus to MMA. He announced himself on the world stage after amassing an impressive record of 12-0 competing in Brazil. On the heels of his unbeaten record, Oliveira signed for UFC as an exciting prospect.

He made his UFC with a trademark submission win over Darren Elkins in August 2010. But he dropped the next two fights against Jim Miller and Donald Cerrone. In 2012, the former champion moved to the featherweight, but a poor run of form during 2015 and 2016 compelled him to return to lightweight.
<figure class="jsx-b9c5e7fc3c08d611">
<div class="jsx-1559681814 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-1559681814" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1328057812.jpg" /></div>
<figcaption>via Getty</figcaption></figure>
However, he soon hit his prime form after suffering a defeat against Paul Felder and rattled 11 consecutive wins that included winning the UFC gold by forcing <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/michael-chandler/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Michael Chandler</a> to the mat and winning the belt via a quick first-round knockout at UFC 262. After that, he would win against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dustin-poirier/">Dustin Poirier</a> and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/justin-gaethje/">Justin Gaethje</a> at UFC 269 and 274 to defend his belt only to lose it to Islam Makhachev at UFFC 280. A rematch between him and the champ would get canceled at UFC 294 after the victory over Dariush thanks to a brutal cut over his eye.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Charles Oliveira Business and Endorsements</strong></h2>
In 2018, Reebok endorsed Charles Oliveira and other UFC Sau Paulo fighters when he fought Christos Giagos. 'do Bronx' pocketed $20,000 for the sponsorship. The fighter is also associated with big brands such as <span style="font-weight: 400">Monster Energy, Jaco Clothing, and Hayabusa Fightwear.</span>

Charles Oliveira: Net Worth 2024, Record, Salary, Endorsements

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Kevin Lee 2021: Record, Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</strong></h2>
Kevin ?The Motown Phenom? Lee is an American mixed martial artist who competes in the UFC's lightweight division. He hails from a strong wrestling background and has an incredible ground game. Apart from that, he is also an entertainer with the ability to get under people?s skin with his trash talking. As of January 2021, he is ranked at #12 in the UFC lightweight <a href="https://www.ufc.com/rankings" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">rankings</a>.

Lee had an impressive start in his MMA career. He kicked off his career with an impressive seven-fight win streak.

[caption id="attachment_436075" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-436075" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-949816848.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1348" /> ATLANTIC CITY, NJ - APRIL 21: Kevin Lee celebrates after his TKO victory over Edson Barboza of Brazil in their lightweight fight during the UFC Fight Night event at the Boardwalk Hall on April 21, 2018 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. (Photo by Patrick Smith/Zuffa LLC/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images)[/caption]
<h2 style="text-align: center">Kevin Lee: UFC Career</h2>
Lee started his UFC career with a loss against Al Iaquinta at UFC 169. He then went on to defeat fighters like Jon Tuck and Jake Matthews to name a few. Kevin Lee encountered turbulence in his career after he lost an interim lightweight championship bout against Tony Ferguson.

Although he won the next fight against Edson Barboza, he lost against Al Iaquinta for the second time. Many speculated that this was mainly because Lee did not have a head coach.

Despite losing, Lee took matters into his own hands and moved up a weight class. Lee had trouble making lightweight as he is too big for the division. He was one among many to pressurize the UFC to create a 165 lbs division. However, that did not happen.

Lee took on Rafael dos Anjos in a welterweight scrap. He found success early on, but got submitted in the fourth round. Things seemed bleak for 'The Motown Phenom'. However, on the advice of <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/joe-rogan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Joe Rogan</a>, Lee joined the Tristar Gym under a <a href="https://www.bjpenn.com/mma-news/ufc/joe-rogan-kevin-lee-is-not-even-in-his-prime/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">new</a> head coach, Firas Zahabi. The result was a beautiful head kick knockout of Gregor Gillespie at UFC 244.

Lee lost to Charles Oliveira at UFC: Brasilia. As of now, he has taken a break from MMA and vows to return stronger than before.

'The Motown Phenom' has an 11-6 <a href="http://ufcstats.com/fighter-details/ee9ebceabfd" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">record</a> in the UFC.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Kevin Lee: Fighting Style</h2>
Lee is an elite wrestler. However, his striking is not bad either, and he can out-strike many top-ranked contenders in the UFC. His greatest weakness is his cardio, as he cannot keep up his pace for a long time. Eventually, his cardio declines and he becomes an easy target for his opponent.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Kevin Lee: Achievements</h2>
Lee holds a proud record of <a href="https://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Kevin-Lee-84342" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span style="font-weight: 400">18-6-0,0NC </span></a>in his MMA career. He was Total Warrior Combat's lightweight <a href="https://combat.draftcentral.com.au/player/kevin-lee/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">champion</a>. Although he is yet to capture the UFC gold, Lee has won 3 performance of the night bonuses in the UFC against Magomed Mustafaev, Michael Chiesa, and Gregor Gillespie.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Kevin Lee: Net Worth and Salary 2021</h2>
Lee did not cross the $100k mark until his fight with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/michael-chiesa/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Michael Chiesa</a>. He made around $149,000 for his victory against Chiesa. As of now, Lee's highest payday came through his interim title fight against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/tony-ferguson/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tony Ferguson</a> ($280,000), followed by his recent knockout of Gillespie ($233,000).

Kevin Lee has earned over $1,536,300 in his UFC career according to <a href="https://thesportsdaily.com/2020/03/14/kevin-lee-career-earnings-fox11/">The Sports Daily</a>. These numbers do not include undisclosed bonuses.

Kevin Lee

Kevin Lee 2021: Record, Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements Kevin ?The Motown Phenom? Lee is an American mixed martial artist who competes in the UFC&#8217;s lightweight division. He hails from a strong wrestling background and has an incredible ground game. Apart from that, he is also an entertainer with the ability to get under people?s skin with his trash talking. As of January 2021, he is ranked at #12 in the UFC lightweight rankings. Lee had an impressive start in his MMA career. He kicked off his career with an impressive seven-fight win streak.

(Photo by Patrick Smith/Zuffa LLC/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images) Kevin Lee: UFC Career Lee started his UFC career with a loss against Al Iaquinta at UFC 169. He then went on to defeat fighters like Jon Tuck and Jake Matthews to name a few. Kevin Lee encountered turbulence in his career after he lost an interim lightweight championship bout against Tony Ferguson. Although he won the next fight against Edson Barboza, he lost against Al Iaquinta for the second time. Many speculated that this was mainly because Lee did not have a head coach. Despite losing, Lee took matters into his own hands and moved up a weight class. Lee had trouble making lightweight as he is too big for the division. He was one among many to pressurize the UFC to create a 165 lbs division. However, that did not happen. Lee took on Rafael dos Anjos in a welterweight scrap. He found success early on, but got submitted in the fourth round. Things seemed bleak for &#8216;The Motown Phenom&#8217;. However, on the advice of Joe Rogan, Lee joined the Tristar Gym under a new head coach, Firas Zahabi. The result was a beautiful head kick knockout of Gregor Gillespie at UFC 244. Lee lost to Charles Oliveira at UFC: Brasilia. As of now, he has taken a break from MMA and vows to return stronger than before. &#8216;The Motown Phenom&#8217; has an 11-6 record in the UFC. Kevin Lee: Fighting Style Lee is an elite wrestler. However, his striking is not bad either, and he can out-strike many top-ranked contenders in the UFC. His greatest weakness is his cardio, as he cannot keep up his pace for a long time. Eventually, his cardio declines and he becomes an easy target for his opponent. Kevin Lee: Achievements Lee holds a proud record of 18-6-0,0NC in his MMA career. He was Total Warrior Combat&#8217;s lightweight champion. Although he is yet to capture the UFC gold, Lee has won 3 performance of the night bonuses in the UFC against Magomed Mustafaev, Michael Chiesa, and Gregor Gillespie. Kevin Lee: Net Worth and Salary 2021 Lee did not cross the $100k mark until his fight with Michael Chiesa. He made around $149,000 for his victory against Chiesa. As of now, Lee&#8217;s highest payday came through his interim title fight against Tony Ferguson ($280,000), followed by his recent knockout of Gillespie ($233,000). Kevin Lee has earned over $1,536,300 in his UFC career according to The Sports Daily. These numbers do not include undisclosed bonuses.
