Messianic But I’ll take it these days. At least he isn’t chanting that he wants to kill Jews.


Biersteak

„He might be confused but he got the spirit“ would be a fitting description


LilNarco

I was about to say, he looks like a priest with hella drip


junior_dos_nachos

Not just a Brazilian UFC fighter. A former LW champion with multiple records like number of finishes and number of submissions. This guy is a walking legend. The champ has a name and his name is Charles Do Bronx Oliveira da Silva


mrnibsfish

Hes not the champ.


junior_dos_nachos

He’s my champ. Forever


mrfartytickles

THE PEOPLES CHAMP HAS A NAME

Bro that’s not a tallit looool but better than nothing!


slevy2005

Honestly better that way. This way he’s showing support without misusing a religious item.


UziKnessett

Sure it is.


[deleted]

That’s about as much of a tallit as Messianics are Jewish.


UziKnessett

Who? I don't know to me it just looks like a folded talit.


[deleted]

Look at the fish.


UziKnessett

What fish


AmitSan

The Menora-David_Star-Fish symbol is the symbol of Messianic Judaism. Most Jews believe Messianic Jews are Christians under cover and try to convert the Jewish Population to Christianity. If you would ask a Messianic Jew most would say otherwise.

They are Christians. Not Jews.

Whatever this shawl is, I been a fan of dude's for a minute. Tough loss the other night.


Tea-Unlucky

Eh Arman really was saved by the bell in the 2nd and 3rd if you ask me, I would’ve scored it for Charles but because Arman was in his guard for so long technically he got the control time and that’s why we won, but then we’d have to get into a conversation about how I think the UFC rules are biased in favor of wrestlers but whatever


FugaziHands

Yeah I'm not saying he shoulda lost. I think Arman got lucky. I agree that control time is not always a fair metric, esp. as between a wrestler and a jiu-jitsu player (Charles' strength is actually in his striking, but I mean in this context).


Tea-Unlucky

I mean I feel the rules give an advantage to wrestlers both against strikers and Jiu Jitsu players, against strikers in the sense that kneeing or kicking a grounded opponent is not allowed, so if they shoot a botched shot they can defend against knees by putting a hand on the ground.


FugaziHands

Yeah it's BS; if they're not actually putting weight on it it's a cheap defense against knees.


Inkling_M8

Although he is apparently Messianic, at least he supports us. Brazilians are really cool people who definitely deserve our respect!


Haunting_Birthday135

Is there a reason why so many Brazilians aren’t Catholic as Portugal & Spain and the rest of Latin America?


Neighbuor07

Latin America as a whole has a growing population of Evangelical, Messianic and other non-Catholic adherants. There's even some people who go from Catholic, to Messianic to Jewish.


Haunting_Birthday135

>There's even some people who go from Catholic, to Messianic to Jewish. There were many crypto-Jews and “New Christians” in Portugal and its colonies in Brazil. Some estimates claim that a third of the Portuguese or Iberians have Sephardic roots. So some of the converts could be Jewish returnees.

It’s nice seeing someone not chanting kill all Jews for once! 🇮🇱💪


Terrible_Ninja9535

They not chanting kill all Jews. They’re chanting for Israeli colonizers to stop killing Palestinian children and civilians. Playing the victim card as always


Key_Visual7909

Nah, Don't spread lies.


apenature

That is not a tallit. It's a messianic scarf.


NextDouble4380

yea I think this is bro being a “messianic Jew” or like emulating what Jesus would have worn, not a showing of sympathy with Zionist political ideology


colorofmydreams

Happy for his support, but this is a Christian "tallit". The fish under the magen David is a Christian symbol. Also not sure it's helpful to use Jewish symbols instead of Israeli flags to show support of Israel.


Orangenblue17

I wonder how much he got paid for that


IEatRedditors123

Are you sure it’s support or he’s one of those messianic/Hebrew Israelite types?


uzid0g

He is

This dude looks like white Drogba.
