Chael Sonnen asserts that Charles Oliveira can reclaim the UFC lightweight championship with a single victory over a particular foe. Like many fans and experts, “The American Gangster” thinks that Beneil Dariush is the bout that should be scheduled for “do Bronx” the most.
Sonnen asserts that the UFC brass must have made an effort to finalise the booking of Oliveira and Dariush. He therefore asserts that there is only one possible explanation for why the contest has not yet been announced: someone chickened out.
Sonnen firmly asserts that one of Charles Oliveira or Beneil Dariush is hesitant to put pen to paper, despite his denial of having any inside information. According to the 45-year-YouTube old’s channel:
“Just the fact that Oliveira and Dariush haven’t been made public yet suggests that someone in charge may have blinked. There is no situation in which Oliveira and Dariush haven’t been paired up on the second level of the UFC in Southern Nevada. Someone must have blinked if that fight wasn’t going to take place. I guaranty that even though I lack inside knowledge, I am correct.”
Charles Oliveira doesn’t plan to change anything in potential rematch against Islam Makhachev
At UFC 280, Islam Makhachev decisively overpowered Charles Oliveira his way to a submission victory in the second round. By the end of the year, “Do Bronx” plans to challenge for the UFC lightweight championship, hopefully against Makhachev.
However, in their probable rematch, “do Bronx” has no plans to make any significant adjustments to their strategy against the Dagestani. The Brazilian stated in a Q&A at UFC 283: “I’m also trying to earn an emphatic win against an elite contender in April-May.”
“I had 10 minutes off on a horrible night, with all due respect. Nothing about me would change if I had to face Islam Makhachev. There will be another altercation. This fight will go place, that much is certain. No matter who it is, I’ll fight in April or May. If I win, God will bless me, and by the end of the year, I’ll face Islam Makhachev again. via Sporstkeeda MMA
