Top lightweight UFC Islam Makhachev admitted that he plans to finish Charles Oliveiro on the ground in the upcoming fight for the vacant belt.

“Why do I want to defeat Oliveira ahead of schedule on the ground? Because he's the UFC stoppage record holder, and I want to take that record away from him because I've beaten all my last opponents ahead of schedule, and I always go for the finish line.

I know that I will win an early victory, because he always gives up. He will do it again," Makhachev said at a press conference.
