Renowned American mixed martial artist BJ Penn believes that only the reigning UFC lightweight champion has Charles Oliveira there is a chance of defeat Khabib Nurmagomedov in this weight category.

“He is an incredible fighter. I remember when he finished off Kevin Lee, I said that Charles is the only fighter who could beat Khabib. He then dominated Tony Ferguson, who is a good and impressive fighter in his own right.

Where are his holes? If he takes you to earth, then you will find yourself in a world of trouble. In the standing position, he can knock you out. I don’t guarantee that he will beat Khabib, but he definitely wouldn’t bet against him, ”bjpenn.com quotes the American.

Recall that Nurmagomedov ended his career in October 2020.
