Islam Makhachev (22-1 MMA, 11-1 UFC) was asked how Khabib vs Oliveira would look,
“This is like easy fight for Khabib because Khabib has the most dominant grappling on top. He’s gonna take him down and hold him there very easy. I think honestly this is a very easy fight for Khabib because stylistically, all his pressure is not gonna work against Khabib because Khabib pressures all his opponents, makes them tired, hold them there.”
“But we don’t have to say Khabib’s gonna beat Charles,” Makhachev said. “I’m gonna beat Charles, and everybody is gonna understand.”
