Top UFC lightweight Arman Tsarukyan shared his opinion about his next opponent, former division champion Charles Oliveira.

These fighters will meet on April 13 at UFC 300 in Las Vegas, USA.

"Charles is only good at one thing: taking his opponent's back and holding a choke from that position. He has long limbs, so he's good at throwing punches when he's on his back, closing the triangle and smothering his opponent. But overall, Oliveira is nothing special.

Yes, he has some tricks in his arsenal, but nothing extraordinary. He feels great about taking his back. We've been working in the gym this morning on how I should act if I get in that situation. We're working on it, but we shouldn't let something like that happen," MMA Junkie quoted Tsarukyan as saying
