He drops guys when they are tired. He dosent have that much power. Its ok. 

Bobby green has very good chin. And WAY better boxing then Gaethje and Chandler. 

So defensively he's better.

Yeah, like 5 years ago lmao. Also he didn't have issues with Giagos, he smashed him. As for Teymur he still ended up rocking him and then submitting him after winning the round. And it's not 1 L, he's just not on Charles's level. Maybe it won't be a knockout, but I definitely think Charles finishes him in the first round

He finished Gaethje in round 1 and Chandler in round 2. Green aint on there levels lmao, I don't see how he survives a round with this new god of destruction version of Oliveira. Notice how all the fights you listed where finishes minus the Tony Ferguson one because he used to not be dog****? It's a 50/50 for me, round 1 or round 2, but Green ain't making it to round 3

He won most of his fights coming back after getting his ass kicked

Hes not that dangerous in r1. But the rounds after that are dangerous

Why can't I be a hater? Both Khabib and Islam have said pretty terrible **** about people who don't share their fundamental religious views. If you're tied to genocidal dictators I can't support you. "They don't have choice" yada yada yada... probably not but based on their own comments they have more in common with Kaydrov than a beard. In saying that Khabib has distanced himself from Kaydrov since retirement and Islam appears to not be as much in the sphere influence as Khabib was. So some props for that.
Anyway, someone got me started on that - it's not the point, point is Charles is not subbing Islam anywhere. A lot of you dudes have gone straight up delusional on Charles actual ability. If Charles wins it will be by KO but it's so incredibly unlikely.. I'm just trying to help you suckers out. You think this is 50/50 by all means put your money down but that's some $$ you're never going see again. Good luck dip****s.

My opinion never changed on Bobby green. I think he’s a very good fighter with some of the best boxing in the division, that doesn’t change the fact that he’d get destroyed by Oliveira

Oliveira doesn’t have much power? I don’t quite understand how you come to that conclusion

I'm fine with hating on someone because they're tied to genocidal dictators, but hating on someone just because they're Muslim is wack. if you get triggered by them calling non-Muslims infidels or whatever, you're just a soyboy respectfully

Honesly, I wouldn't want to put my money against a guy who won 11 fight win streak, 2 UFC title defence and second on the pound 4 pound list, Espacally as an underdog, Ususlly when you get champions at dog odds It alway good value, They're a reason they're champions, You can't be a ***** and be UFC champion


I also think Islam is to Khabib, What Rory is to GSP

It’s crazy that 68% of people are picking Oliveira, he’s gonna get controlled for the entire fight

Islam vs Oliveira

Predictions: 10 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 540 Points   |   Tied for 929th


That's mauling fot three rounds and groundNpound or RNC.

If Oliveira survives till 4th round - it's another mauling. And it's not even competetive. The only chance for Oliveira is to catch Islam into Guillotine.
