The rumors of 'Do Bronx' dating Ice Spice didn't stem from a news report but a tweet, which prompted the Brazilian jiu-jitsu savant to respond. @beIsfy posted the tweet on Twitter and falsely quoted a popular MMA-based Instagram handle @fullviolence as the source, with the caption:
"Ice spice & charles oliveira are reportedly dating (via @/fullviolence)."Check out the tweet below:
As the tweet went viral, fans were understandably shocked at the unlikely pair linking up. However, Charles Oliveira swiftly ended the speculations by replying to the tweet. The former UFC lightweight champion asked:
"Wat?"Given the viral nature of the tweet, it has been confirmed that the reports of Charles Oliveira dating Ice Spice are not true. The Instagram page @Fullviolence posted a screenshot of the original tweet that credits them for the rumor and wrote in the caption “Via who??,” implying that they did not report any such news.
Meanwhile, Charles Oliveira recently defeated Beneil Dariush at UFC 289 and strengthened his claim for a rematch against lightweight champion Islam Makhachev. The Brazilian demolished Dariush via a first-round TKO and is 4-1 in his last five outings.
