Former UFC Lightweight Champion Charles Oliveira commented on his defeat Islam Makhachev in the main event of UFC 280 in Abu Dhabi.
Recall that the Brazilian lost by choke in the second round.
“Islam did what it was supposed to do, but I failed in my task. This happens - today Makhachev turned out to be stronger. There are days when you are better than your opponent, and there are days when the opposite is true. Nothing to do here, but we will definitely meet him again.
I'm still the number one contender in the division. Later, I will return home, talk with loved ones, talk with the UFC, and we will decide what our next step will be. No one hit me harder than life, but I fell and got up. Now I'm going to get my belt back. A wounded lion is the most dangerous animal,” the Brazilian said at a press conference.
