Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov shared his opinion on Charles Oliveira, who his friend and UFC partner Islam Makhachev will fight.

"We've studied him carefully and continue to do so. He has a very good guillotine. We need to watch out for that - his body is perfect for that technique. As for his stance, he has really good knees and leg kicks.

I wouldn't say he's strong, but he's gained a lot of experience and confidence over the last few years. We're not looking behind his back, but we're confident that we can handle him," Sportskeeda quotes Khabib as saying.
