Charles Oliveira and Khabib Nurmagomedov

former manager Khabiba Nurmagomedova Ali Abdelaziz said he considers the debate about the greatest lightweight in UFC history inappropriate.

“I respect Oliveira, but stop comparing him to Khabib. Khabib never gave up, he was not dropped and he did not shed blood in the octagon. And Oliveira has not cleared the division yet, because we have Dauriush and Makhachev.

I really respect Charles, but why is Makhachev a four-time favorite in a duel with him? Khabib has never been an outsider. Please stop talking about the greatest,” Abdelaziz tweeted.

Recall that Oliveira failed to make weight before the fight with Justin Gaethje at UFC 274 and lost the title. An early victory over the American made him the main contender for the vacant belt.
