Former UFC fighter and now analyst Chael Sonnen said that achievements cannot be compared Khabiba Nurmagomedova with achievements Charles Oliveira.
“No matter what advantages or disadvantages Khabib has, he never got into trouble. Here is the difference between them. The two never met, but we didn't even discuss their confrontation. When Khabib spoke, no one talked about Oliveira. Everyone had the fight between Nurmagomedov and Ferguson on their tongue. Only after Charles' victory over Tony did everyone say: "My God, what a good fighter he is." They performed at the same time and this is important. How can we say Charles is the best if he wasn't even a contender when Khabib held the title. He was at that time ranked sixth, seventh or eighth in the ranking. After what I said, we can put Khabib in first place and Oliveira in second place, but we also understand that Charles has the time and ability to get around Khabib.
Recall that on October 22, Oliveira will have to fight Khabib's friend Islam Makhachev.
