Khabib about Oliveira: He needs to make weight and be a professional

Ex-champion UFC of the lightweight division Khabib Nurmagomedov criticized Charles Oliveira.

“Every fight he falls a couple of times. In the last fight, how many times did he fall – two or three? There are questions to this. Nobody ever touched my face. People can’t compare me to him, he was knocked into the UFC eight times. Please stop with these comparisons. When he knocked with Jim Miller, Paul Felder, Max Holloway, Anthony Pettis, it was Charles Oliveira knocking, not Khabib.

If he wants to be considered the greatest lightweight, he has to beat Islam, Beneil, a couple of other guys, and then we’ll talk. He needs to make weight and be a professional. People talk about scales. They gave him an hour. He returned after this time and showed the same weight. What were you doing for an hour? Lots of questions for him. But the fact that he returned after all these defeats is very impressive. He got wrestling, stance, elbows, knees. He looks good”, — said Nurmagomedov.

Charles Oliveira previously dated Justin Gaethje. The fight ended with an early victory for the Brazilian by choke in the first round. However, the belt in this division (lightweight) remains vacant, as Charles Oliveira failed the control weigh-in before the fight. The next fight of Islam Makhachev should take place with Beneil Dariush – the date of the fight has not yet been determined.
