Robert Whittaker, former UFC middleweight champion, gave a prediction for the fight between Islam Makhachev and Charles Oliveira.
“If I were betting, I would bet on Makhachev, because Oliveira is too confident in his defensive jiu-jitsu and will allow himself to be transferred. He knows how to work on his back, defending and attacking with his knees and elbows, but Makhachev's wrestling and grappling, obviously, are on a different, highest level.
Recall that the confrontation between Makhachev and Oliveira will be held on October 22 in Abu Dhabi.
