Makhachev offered Oliveira to train together

Dmitriy Kel May 30, 2024, 8:55 a.m.

UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev shared his opinion on former titleholder Charles Oliveira and also spoke on the Brazilian's desire to move up to welterweight for a fight with Colby Covington.

"Oliveira is a great guy. If he needs help, he can come to Dagestan and train with us. His striking technique and grappling are already at a very high level, and with wrestling we can help him.

Possible fight between Charles and Covington? I think he can finish Colby. He's an extremely dangerous guy, trying to finish his opponent every second. How many early wins does he have right now? I think, more than anyone," - quotes Makhachev BJ Penn.
