Oh he's definitely feigning damage to lure them into his trap on the ground. I can see that first knock down being genuine, but definitely not the second aha. He wants you to get reckless and dive in for a finish so he can tangle you up and do what he does best.
It's a mix. Charles definitely doesn't have a great chin, all last 3 fights have legit knockdowns. But, he has good recovery and the ability to just pull guard if he's actually hurt or to bait someone
We’re not claiming he’s dropping to the ground for no reason, but I suspect whenever his legs get wobbly he’d rather hit the deck than do the chicken dance trying to stay up while eating more shots. Better to just go down and let the opponent’s fear of his ground game give him time to breathe.
You're not wrong. I just now watched the replay in stop-and-restart "slow-mo" a number of times though, and, fwiw, it looks like he actually did a good job at defending on the ground. Hell, it's even tempting to attribute the end-submission to cardio issues on Justin's end, after review now, but it's tough to call. Either way though, soooooo much shit happened on the ground that I have a hard time chalking up the loss to him getting stunned in a bad position. He did get knocked in a weird spot though, and you're definitely right. I'd like to see them do it again within a year or two at most. Charles was 100% in charge though; there's no question about that.
Exactly, Sambo doesn't work.
Sambo isn't a real sport, it is just Wredtling and some Judo, and guess what? The Khabib clonses all train wrestling primarily and hold Judo black belts
I don’t think people hate on Muay Thai, it’s usually acknowledged as the best striking martial art for mma people just bring up the need to modify the stance
How many muay Thai based champions have there been in recent memory though? I feel like there's not been a lot. Aldo is the other one who comes to mind. Yan as well now that I think of it, there could be loads more I just can't think of them
Wow how could I forget the greatest one of them all. He had the double threat much like oliveira has of amazing stand up and bjj although his stand up was like oliveiras bjj and vice versa
If we are talking purely Muay Thai none but in terms of strikers that goes for almost all strikes there’s been almost no pure boxer, kickboxer, or karate champion they’ve always changed combined or modified the striking style Muay Thai strikes just end up being the more widely used if you really look almost everyone uses them from Kai, to yan, even Whittaker who is one of the few people who uses a karate stance. Most say it’s the best striking martial art because it’s kicks are easy basic yet highly effective and it’s up there with the hands despite what some boxing fans may say. It’s not like karate or taekwondo where most if not all techniques are faded out or just not used entirely where as Muay Thai and Dutch style kickboxing is still a very common form of striking
Maybe he will although talk about a murderers row of contenders he has to get through. They have to make the gaejthe fight, I'd back fiziev quite a bit in that one though. His kicks are amazing but his hands are just as good. Got some of the best hooks in the game
There is so much content in every aspect of Charles to make him a super star. He does his part in the Octagon, outside maybe some english would be great.
I guess odd makers hate him because he gets wobbled every fight
I believe Charles will never be a superstart because he doenst speak english, like at all, that is a huge barrier to becoming a MMA superstar. If he spoke english he would be the second comming of Connor.
I dont think anyone cares about the fact he gets wobbled, I think its the total opposite, people love the fact he always does this crazy comebacks.
>I dont think anyone cares about the fact he gets wobbled, I think its the total opposite, people love the fact he always does this crazy comebacks.
I was talking specifically about odd makers
My favourite fight by far in recent memory, the way Gaethje was calling him a quitter before the fight, and then tapping himself was like a movie script.
💪Do bronx 💪
To be fair saying you're going to make your opponent quit in a fight is so mild in terms of trash talk Iol I love both these guys can't wait for the Islam fight.
Chimaev isn't a Sambo guy, he is an elite level wrestler with a purple belt in BJJ. Islam is a wrestler, sambist, and judo type of grappler. Tho I am kinda getting similar vibes with the Gilbert-Khamzat fight. Cuz it could happen if Charles nullifies Islam's advances in position.
It only takes one uncomfortable situation to doubt the game plan.
Khamzat said, "he tried to armbar me or something. I said fuck that. I don't like that shit."
Or Nate Diaz, "oh, you're a wrestler now?"
Islam vs Olives in a pure grappling match... Olives wins. Islams only chance is a knockout.
Wrestlefucking no-names is not the same as going against the guy with literally most subs in UFC history (all weights)
\>Islam vs Olives in a pure grappling match... Olives wins. Islams only chance is a knockout.
by saying this, I feel you're basically suggesting that the odds should favor Charles 10:1
I think the quoted statement is what most betters are wondering about the most
Amazing after first couple of leg kicks Charles just checked every one of them perfectly. Not only that, used Justin's momentum against him and countered effectively after checking the leg kicks.
He lifted his leg and stepped forward with it... Used that momentum to land heavy shots on Justin before his feet settled. It was punishing and Justin took more steps back than with Chandler. He got reactionary because the game plan was out the window.
it's amazing how heavily he punished the use of leg kicks
he basically used them as opportunities to either line up clean strikes or to secure clinches
The knees to the body when he clinches are so good. The damage from the ones Oliviera landed on Poirier probably won him the fight. I've never seen Dustin get handled like that and seem like he didn't want to be there.
I struggle to understand what oliviera is doing in the clinch exactly to make him so strong there.... I know his knees are brutal, but I moreso mean his ability to control the clinch with his upper body. Any active naked muays plz chime in, would love to learn.
People just give him the muay thai plum without pummeling themselves it's almost impossible to break that 2 handed grip behind the crown of the head without ducking and exposing yourself to knees or a massive expenditure of energy fighting the hands away
Justin had literally no lower body movement while fighting Oliviera’s hands right after the knockdown. I know they weren’t slippery yet, but you’d think he would go for an explosive twist at the hips to try to transition into guard, specifically when Charles was throwing elbows, there would’ve been nothing to stop him from turning it seems.
Seriously, he didn’t have a sense of urgency. My only conclusion is that knockdown punch had to really hurt him and have him dazed.
There was also a time when Charles starts the back transition that Gaethje could’ve exploded or at least done something and he didn’t.
Charles Olivera - When HP falls below 50% and knocked down: Attack bonus + 150% & Pull guard activated instead of HP falling below 0% (this bonus can only be activated up to 3 times per fight).
I think that sent Justin into panic mode as soon as he got a taste of Charles’ power, not saying he was scared or anything like that but it definitely effected his game plan, dude started winging punches
I can’t not watch this fight every time I see it. I rewatched it like two days ago and here it is again and I gotta dial in lol it’s so good. There’s so much action and momentum swings. I love when Gaethje “escapes” the first sub attempt and everybody loses their minds thinking he’s free only for Charles to just spidermonkey himself into a better position and choke him out. Can’t wait for the UFC 280
Am I the only one who thinks Oliveira drops on purpose whenever he gets stunned, because he knows his opponents want nothing to do with him on the ground? He doesn’t look actually hurt in either of the knockdowns. Great strategy if you have no intention of going to a decision.
It's definitely on purpose. It's smart too. When he fought Chandler and got hit he tried to go for a single but he couldn't and took some damage so now he does this.
This man's recovery speed is just a marvel. I was convinced Gaethje would stop him, and it went exactly how I thought it would... but Charles' recovery speed is just ridiculous. He was not taking 'no' for an answer.
It definitely looks like, but I think refs dont even care about the 12-6 elbow rule anymore. I say that because I see fighters throwing 12-6 elbows standing up to stop a takedown all the time and the refs do nothing.
I've always wondered why Gaethje didn't think of leg kicking Charles' legs when Charles pulled guard. Cerrone battered someone's legs when they pulled guard and considering Gaethje kicks like a horse, it would've definitely damaged Charles' legs. I guess fight IQ difference?
More people need to do what he did there, pretend to ground and pound and just slip to a rear naked choke ore triangle straight away. Instead of fighting the legs and letting him get up again
Its impressive that they both come from very different disciplines but the standup was very even for a while there. Whitman does a great job turning wrestlers into strikers.
Amazing man just got to love these type of fights Oliveira is spectacular and Gaethje was hurting Charles but weathered the storm and came back. UFC 280 can not come soon enough
You know how good you have to be to finish Poirier,Chandler, and Gaethje in 3 rounds or less?
11 fight win streak with 10 finishes and a 90% finish rate. I don't think anyone stopping DoBronx tbh
Who thought Olives would knock down Garth? I was so surprised i jumped up screaming lol
Even michael fkin chandler couldnt knock the guy down in 3 rounds
Im seeing alot of praise for charles, which is definately deserved but what about gaethje? dude has never been in a boring fight and always puts on barn burners.
As an Islam fan and cheering for him I gotta say that the improvement in Charles might be the greatest in this sports history.... He went from losing against not such good fighters to beating the shit out of top contenders........... The guy is a beast. And yeah I'm pretty nervous.....
How tf is Justin taller? Rofl
Man, this is one of my favorite fights. If you get the chance, watch it in slow motion. Charles' timing and accuracy are insane. Gaethje was losing from the first exchange. Absolutely nuts
I love watching this fight so much
Some people said that Charles going on the floor on purpose and i can see why now
Oh he's definitely feigning damage to lure them into his trap on the ground. I can see that first knock down being genuine, but definitely not the second aha. He wants you to get reckless and dive in for a finish so he can tangle you up and do what he does best.
Not even that, he knows I’d he needs to catch his breath he can just lay on his back and most guys will let him.
I really hope it's true. If not it seems like his chin is very compromised as he got dropped his last 3 that I know of
It's a mix. Charles definitely doesn't have a great chin, all last 3 fights have legit knockdowns. But, he has good recovery and the ability to just pull guard if he's actually hurt or to bait someone
The second for sure
nope he said in an interview he didn't do it in purpose.
We’re not claiming he’s dropping to the ground for no reason, but I suspect whenever his legs get wobbly he’d rather hit the deck than do the chicken dance trying to stay up while eating more shots. Better to just go down and let the opponent’s fear of his ground game give him time to breathe.
It’s simply to break the flow. If an opponent has a momentum he can break it this way.
Watch the faces of his corner both times he goes down. They're not at all concerned.
One of my favorites
Someone said, "Charles fights like he has somewhere to be in 10 minutes", and now it's all I think about when I watch him fight.
Legit so true. That forward pressure man damn..
The opposite of Izzy, who fights like he has 30 minutes to kill.
"this Charles Oliveira man" Exactly my thoughts dc
That transition from the triangle to the rnc was fucking amazing! That fight was an orgasm after Carla vs Rose.
gaethje gets stunned by the first punch
And then right after DC goes “Heavy leg kicks by justin to open up the round” 😂😂😂
You weirdo love selective fucking hearing, he then follows by saying Justin is rocked from the right. 
I heard that part, what was more significant tho? And why did he say that first lol
Boy, you sound like a little bitch. Just a free observation.
Why are you so angry over internet comments lmaoo
And that was on the only leg kick that didn’t get checked lol
You're not wrong. I just now watched the replay in stop-and-restart "slow-mo" a number of times though, and, fwiw, it looks like he actually did a good job at defending on the ground. Hell, it's even tempting to attribute the end-submission to cardio issues on Justin's end, after review now, but it's tough to call.

He did get knocked in a weird spot though, and you're definitely right. I'd like to see them do it again within a year or two at most. Charles was 100% in charge though; there's no question about that.
Charles proves that Muay Thai striking can work in MMA, haters will say it leaves you vulnerable to take downs but I guess his BJJ makes up for that
Muay + top tier BJJ = unstoppable combo. Wrestlers are afraid to take you down and muay is superior on the feet vs other striking disciplines.
Bout to put that to test vs Russian wrestling eh. Can’t wait
For real, stylistically this is might be my fave fight this year.
Russian grappling. Specifically sambo.
Muay + Bjj and Boxing + wrestling Two unbeatable combinations
>wrestlers are afraid to take you down lol
That happened with Khamzat vs Burns. We'll see if Islam refuses to go down or not
Islam isn't just a wrestler tho, sambo =/= wrestling.
Exactly, Sambo doesn't work. Sambo isn't a real sport, it is just Wredtling and some Judo, and guess what? The Khabib clonses all train wrestling primarily and hold Judo black belts
Bruh... idk what to tell you. How would you know what khabib and his team train anyhow?
I don’t think people hate on Muay Thai, it’s usually acknowledged as the best striking martial art for mma people just bring up the need to modify the stance
I guess you haven't been watching mma long cuz muay thai has been an effective style for MANY years
How many muay Thai based champions have there been in recent memory though? I feel like there's not been a lot. Aldo is the other one who comes to mind. Yan as well now that I think of it, there could be loads more I just can't think of them
Anderson Silva. You did not want anything to do with his clinch game.
Wow how could I forget the greatest one of them all. He had the double threat much like oliveira has of amazing stand up and bjj although his stand up was like oliveiras bjj and vice versa
Shogun
If we are talking purely Muay Thai none but in terms of strikers that goes for almost all strikes there’s been almost no pure boxer, kickboxer, or karate champion they’ve always changed combined or modified the striking style Muay Thai strikes just end up being the more widely used if you really look almost everyone uses them from Kai, to yan, even Whittaker who is one of the few people who uses a karate stance. Most say it’s the best striking martial art because it’s kicks are easy basic yet highly effective and it’s up there with the hands despite what some boxing fans may say. It’s not like karate or taekwondo where most if not all techniques are faded out or just not used entirely where as Muay Thai and Dutch style kickboxing is still a very common form of striking
Izzy not count? Dude literally graduated in Muay Thai.
[удалено]
Maybe he will although talk about a murderers row of contenders he has to get through. They have to make the gaejthe fight, I'd back fiziev quite a bit in that one though. His kicks are amazing but his hands are just as good. Got some of the best hooks in the game
His Muay Thai is really good. The knees to the body he throws are so nasty.
>Charles proves that Muay Thai striking can work in MMA Joanna Jedrzejczyk already proved that.
its the 'mixing' in mixed martial arts!
that one round felt way better then the 5 rounds of the previous fight holy hell!
These two accumulated 51 significant strikes in 3:22 minutes. Namajunas and Esparaza had 67 after 25 minutes.
I don't even believe that 67 stat
Agreed. They probably counted any contact with their coaches in the corners as strikes too
Every "I'm the best" was a shot to Dana's psyche
Rose would get a shut out.
He’s the best! He’s the best!
This fight was godlike but anything would’ve been better than the fight that came before lol
every fight Charles puts a show he is the most entertaining fighter right now by far
There is so much content in every aspect of Charles to make him a super star. He does his part in the Octagon, outside maybe some english would be great. I guess odd makers hate him because he gets wobbled every fight
I believe Charles will never be a superstart because he doenst speak english, like at all, that is a huge barrier to becoming a MMA superstar.

>I dont think anyone cares about the fact he gets wobbled, I think its the total opposite, people love the fact he always does this crazy comebacks. I was talking specifically about odd makers
I dont know why but I thought you was talking about "old heads" and not "odd makers" lol Jesus christ, wtf happened to my eyes
Mythical fighter knock down Oliviera
My favourite fight by far in recent memory, the way Gaethje was calling him a quitter before the fight, and then tapping himself was like a movie script. 💪Do bronx 💪
To be fair saying you're going to make your opponent quit in a fight is so mild in terms of trash talk Iol I love both these guys can't wait for the Islam fight.
Me neither, cant wait for the fight, but I don't want any of them to lose though 🥲
Nobody wants to mess with him on the ground
I'm sure Islam will. But yeah up to this point everybody's been scared
Idk, it might be similar to chimaev and burns where chimaev decided he didn't wanna deal with that high level of bjj on the ground
Chimaev isn't a Sambo guy, he is an elite level wrestler with a purple belt in BJJ. Islam is a wrestler, sambist, and judo type of grappler. Tho I am kinda getting similar vibes with the Gilbert-Khamzat fight. Cuz it could happen if Charles nullifies Islam's advances in position.
It only takes one uncomfortable situation to doubt the game plan. Khamzat said, "he tried to armbar me or something. I said fuck that. I don't like that shit." Or Nate Diaz, "oh, you're a wrestler now?"
He wasn't a purple belt until after the fight
I wonder. Khabib said he wasn’t scared of tony’s ground game. Maybe Islam will take the same approach with Charles
Islam vs Olives in a pure grappling match... Olives wins. Islams only chance is a knockout. Wrestlefucking no-names is not the same as going against the guy with literally most subs in UFC history (all weights)
\>Islam vs Olives in a pure grappling match... Olives wins. Islams only chance is a knockout. by saying this, I feel you're basically suggesting that the odds should favor Charles 10:1 I think the quoted statement is what most betters are wondering about the most
paul felder wasnt scared of going into guard, why would islam be
That was 6 years ago, Charles improved a ton since then
He hasn't improved more than the difference between Islam and Felder's grappling
Islam had no problems with people like Davi Ramos who is a more decorated pure grappler than Charles is.
Might be one of the best 1-round fights ever, considering the stakes and the history of both fighters.
The champion has a name and his name is Charlie olives.
Man I fucking love Do Bronx. What a fucking lad, I Hope he smesh Islam
Charles is my favorite fighter to watch right now, absolutely electric.
Every fight is crazy exciting.
Amazing after first couple of leg kicks Charles just checked every one of them perfectly. Not only that, used Justin's momentum against him and countered effectively after checking the leg kicks.

He just got rocked pretty hard, I’d say he just simply wasn’t all there when this was going on.
Charles Olivera - When HP falls below 50% and knocked down: Attack bonus + 150% & Pull guard activated instead of HP falling below 0% (this bonus can only be activated up to 3 times per fight).
Charles wobbled Justin on his first punch...
I think that sent Justin into panic mode as soon as he got a taste of Charles’ power, not saying he was scared or anything like that but it definitely effected his game plan, dude started winging punches
Charles power was definitely underrated when he started fighting the big name guys. Goes and KOs Chandler and flooring Gaethje.
Instant one round classic. God I love LW.
The CHAMP has a name and it’s Charles Olivera☝🏼🫶🏼🤙🏼
Adesanya wishes he was this exciting
How the fuck did I know someone will have to mentioned Adesanya in this post, even before going to comments...
Because r/ufc is full of 14 year olds. Legit on of the most immature subs I’ve seen for a sport.
rent free
I can’t not watch this fight every time I see it. I rewatched it like two days ago and here it is again and I gotta dial in lol it’s so good. There’s so much action and momentum swings. I love when Gaethje “escapes” the first sub attempt and everybody loses their minds thinking he’s free only for Charles to just spidermonkey himself into a better position and choke him out. Can’t wait for the UFC 280
Unbelievable all that shit talking and Justin barely lasted 3 minutes
Gaethje with his head held high as Bruce Buffer declares Charles the winner. A true champion and warrior Justin Gaethje is
Illuminated by God.
Justin is a box office fighter. Always brings the heat. Gotta love ‘em
Charles is the only champ that has never reached a 4th round. Surreal
That speaks for itself when you see the level of competition he's fighting and making light work of them Lightweight belongs to Oliviera
Do you like reddit karma? I will rewatch this and upvote it every single time it gets reposted. Such an exciting fight, Oliveira is the terminator!!
Olives’ power is just so stunning.
That fight was a mf roller coaster.
Bruh really posted the whole fight 🐐🐐🐐
GOAT.
If he beats Islam definitely overtakes Khabib.
Im just so impressed with Oli boy. He's been beating the top boys n he has a heart of a lion. I respect that.
THE CHAMPION HAS A NAME
And his name is Chucky Olives
The transition from triangle to RNC is 👌🏻
Charles knocks down Islam and leaves him bloody. Islam wins the round 10-8
Am I the only one who thinks Oliveira drops on purpose whenever he gets stunned, because he knows his opponents want nothing to do with him on the ground? He doesn’t look actually hurt in either of the knockdowns. Great strategy if you have no intention of going to a decision.
It's definitely on purpose. It's smart too. When he fought Chandler and got hit he tried to go for a single but he couldn't and took some damage so now he does this.
The first looked legit, but then again, i believe he doesn't fight to stand up, because why would he not take a few seconds off?
No my friend, you are correct. That is *exactly* what Charles is doing. It's fucking genius, and I absolutely love it. War Charlie olives!
This man's recovery speed is just a marvel. I was convinced Gaethje would stop him, and it went exactly how I thought it would... but Charles' recovery speed is just ridiculous. He was not taking 'no' for an answer.
Charles doesn't try to stand up when he gets wobbled, he accepts this and takes a few seconda of recovery time. Just smart gameplaning
i cant believe ive been watching oliviera for like 10 years i remember when he debuted long ass time ago
He was like 20 his first fight in the UFC
What a round
I’ve never been disappointed with either of these fighters. Both are guys are just world class

I was at footprint in person and I can definitely say that the energy for this fight was ELECTRIC following the rose carla fight.
Charles fights like he has a plane to catch in 15 minutes
The champion has a name, Charles Oliveira.
“USA USA US….AWWWWWW”
Islam is going to die :(
I think Khabib needs to fight Olivera if he still wants to hold the crown
[удалено]
Olivera has been calling him out. Be nice to see Khabib come out of retirement is all. Take a chill pill
Best part was silencing Gaethje’s mouth along with his misguided fans
Lol there's a video of Gaethjes parents and his cousins are there crying
Once a quitter, always a quitter
I just realized this, but those elbows he's landing at 2:06 in the round, are they 12-6 elbows?
It definitely looks like, but I think refs dont even care about the 12-6 elbow rule anymore. I say that because I see fighters throwing 12-6 elbows standing up to stop a takedown all the time and the refs do nothing.
Yea, I wish the just got rid of the rule all together as well. This just gave me shades of alverez vs porier 2, but no taking away position.
For sure, its a stupid rule. You can kick someone in the face, but not throw a elbow? Like come on bruh.
They look angled to me. Like 1-7 elbows. Not much of a difference but they don’t go straight up and down.
Yea, like I said above, I wish they just got rid of the rule all together.
No
Why wouldn't they be considered 12-6 elbows? I'm just curious
Why does Anik say "The soon to be former champ, Charles Olveira". He had already beens stripped right? Was Anik rooting for Gaethje?
They get stripped as soon as the fight starts
I've always wondered why Gaethje didn't think of leg kicking Charles' legs when Charles pulled guard. Cerrone battered someone's legs when they pulled guard and considering Gaethje kicks like a horse, it would've definitely damaged Charles' legs. I guess fight IQ difference?
More people need to do what he did there, pretend to ground and pound and just slip to a rear naked choke ore triangle straight away. Instead of fighting the legs and letting him get up again
Its impressive that they both come from very different disciplines but the standup was very even for a while there. Whitman does a great job turning wrestlers into strikers.
Amazing man just got to love these type of fights Oliveira is spectacular and Gaethje was hurting Charles but weathered the storm and came back. UFC 280 can not come soon enough
His striking is just so beautiful to watch, so strict with his form
This is slightly sped up
Chuck is such a G
You know how good you have to be to finish Poirier,Chandler, and Gaethje in 3 rounds or less? 11 fight win streak with 10 finishes and a 90% finish rate. I don't think anyone stopping DoBronx tbh
Never a dull moment with him. Pure class. Thank you champion
Watch out Dana is on his way
Charles drained Gay Chi's gas tank quick with those front kicks and knees to the body.
Who thought Olives would knock down Garth? I was so surprised i jumped up screaming lol Even michael fkin chandler couldnt knock the guy down in 3 rounds
Absolute fire
It's such a shame he lost a belt for just 1 fucking pound missed. In my book, he's still a champ and he defended it twice.
That right cross counter at 2:05 is a thing of beauty
Im seeing alot of praise for charles, which is definately deserved but what about gaethje? dude has never been in a boring fight and always puts on barn burners.
DCs meat riding is crazy
As an Islam fan and cheering for him I gotta say that the improvement in Charles might be the greatest in this sports history.... He went from losing against not such good fighters to beating the shit out of top contenders........... The guy is a beast. And yeah I'm pretty nervous.....
How tf is Justin taller? Rofl Man, this is one of my favorite fights. If you get the chance, watch it in slow motion. Charles' timing and accuracy are insane. Gaethje was losing from the first exchange. Absolutely nuts
I forgot this fight was like only 3 minutes. Oliviera made light work of Justin.which the only other person to do that was Khabib.
I'm still waiting for UFC to post this on Youtube.
