Bisping spoke about the fight between Makhachev and Oliveira

Former UFC Middleweight Champion Michael Bisping spoke about the upcoming fight between Islam Makhachev and Charles Oliveira.

“I think that Makhachev will come out and try to knock Oliveira to the ground first, because Charles allows his opponents to take him to the ground, because he thinks: “Move me, asshole, and we’ll see what happens.” So I think Islam will have an easy takedown, then they will probably have a tough awakening and they will hit us with some high level grappling that will be fun to watch. Or it will be high-class, crazy exchanges in which I favor Oliveira as it gives him the opportunity to get back on his feet. If Islam wins, then I believe it needs to slow down Oliveira. Makhachev needs to takedown, slowly, methodically go through his guard, keep Charles on his back, make the fight boring.

Recall that the fight between Makhachev and Oliveira will be held on October 22 in Abu Dhabi.
