Oliveira's coach believes that Makhachev is better than Khabib
Alireza Noei, coach of former UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira, spoke about the upcoming fight of his ward with Islam Makhachev.
“Charles' opponent, Islam Makhachev, is a very good wrestler. I think he is better Khabib, because Makhachev is a wrestler, and Khabib is not. Khabib sambist. Islam also did sambo, but he is first and foremost a wrestler, and then a sambo wrestler and an MMA fighter.”
Recall that the confrontation between Oliveira and Makhachev will be held on October 22 in Abu Dhabi.
