For the people who think grappling is boring, watch this man!
People who think grappling is boring should just watch kickboxing instead
you mean casuals.
It depends on the grappling. If the fighter just holds his opponent against the fence like Usman did in the first time he fought Masvidal, that’s boring.
Watch the fight from last weekend Gregor Gillespie vs Diego fierra
exactly
Oliveira: One of the most ruthless submission artists in the sport Literally every opponent: Hey let's take him down
Panic wrestler. Charles is a good striker too
Paul Felder: Am I a joke to you?
Ye cuz they saw khabib do it and they think everyone can do it
No its because they saw in Oliveiras featherweight days he seemed to fold under pressure. So their thinking was to take him down and after a few big ground and pound shots his jiu jitsu will be diminished
Well said sir
Did you guys forget his fight against Kevin Lee? That's one of the significant victories he ever had.
Ik like I was looking for it
Violence against Asians is a touchy subject these days.
Everyone seems to forget about it, including the lightweight division 😂
I saw it flash by in the beginning
Mone jijeesh eh? Endhokke ondu vishesham
A lot of people think that Dustin Poirier will beat this guy but they forget how lethal Oliviera is
good call
This comment aged well
😦😦😦😦😦
The way he was able to just do whatever he wanted against tony is insane
He break
Not really tony never went against a bjj specialist like dubronx
@@venomgoldenreaper3834 does mean u can beat someone everywhere u pleb
Ok, he wanted to submit Tony and could not when he is the best bjj practitioner in the ufc. So, almost true.
@@spiceolife *Saved by the bell*
Him on the ground looks like he’s under water w how smooth he is
@Christopher Keller What’s a group game?
@@duramaxdad he meant ground game
@Christopher Keller yeah, what's a group game.... explain please.
Even Tony’s buttery ninja skills were complete futile. To me, Charles is the Brazilian Tony lol
Im from the future
Tony ferguson is the type of guy transfer his soul to oliviera body for continue his winning streak..
Omg lol
Hahah
What streak
Nah
Just when I thought the meme was over lol nice one!
Can we just appreciate how long Tony stayed in that arm bar. The guys an animal.
you realize olivera was not going full force. since the round was ending, he did not want to break tonys arm
@@stupidzombie2000 not going full force? Are you stupid? He put it under his elbow which is the tightest an armbar can be
@@stupidzombie2000 are you some kind of muppet or what. Oliveras job is break his arm if he needs to. The whole point of tapping out is to tap before that happens. Dont embarrass yourself again.
Saved by the bell...any longer it would have snapped
@@stupidzombie2000 nah you’re right, oliveria could have broke his arm but didn’t out of sympathy, there were several situations in the last round where he had the opportunity but chose to just stall it out
You know a fighter been around awhile in the UFC if you hear Goldberg saying "it is alllll over"
If you see my community tab's post (photo) then I promise you that you not stop your laughing🤣😅🤣......💖...,,.., .
This is sooo facts lol
How I miss those times
Or you’re watching Bellator
He hasn't even been gone long lol
What scary abt Charles is his composure gets better in every single fight. Do Bronx is not just about technique, he can finish you wherever he wants now. This guy is a definition of the real UFC vet. Lets see how his mentallity tested in the championship fight. Can't wait!
My opinion, Chandler will win 👍
@@ohdima4621 It would be a perfect story for Chandler. As a matter of fact the UFC prefer Chandler to win also cause of his interesting persona which can easily generate money. Meanwhile Oliveira cs think this title fight is just a bonus of his years of hardwork. That worries me a little, but i still fancy Oliveira to win. I admire his fight IQ and ability a lot.
Excellent point about his composure. Charles always looks clear-headed, creative and relaxed.
Nice words my friend. Agree!
I have a feeling Chandler will throw a big over hand and knocks down Oliveira, then he will jump on Oliveira on the ground to try to finish the fight and Oliveira will recover fast and lands a triangle for another sub finish 👀
Him defeating Poirier will cement his legacy as *one of the* GREATEST lightweights of ALL TIME
It’s gonna be pretty hard to beat the masterclass khabib put on and he definitely has chances to be a great but one title defense won’t do shit I’m not hating but saying facts he’s only beat a few notable names one of them washed tony.
@@jonathan6730 Khabib also beat 3-4 good fighters.All others were average.Olivera vs khabib will decide who is better.If khabon wants to come back for one more fight.
@@omegamasculine no I counted there were like 6 and bro his father died he couldn’t continue without him but instead people attack him saying he ran but don’t appreciate it and who has Oliviera defeated huh old retired washed tony or Mike chandler only two rest were bums eight fight win streak full of bums huh like gaethje said Oliviera isn’t even a true champ the fight should have been against gaethje and poirier but shit happens their timing didn’t match at all
@@jonathan6730 You can't change my opinion.I can't change your opinion.We will soon know if Oliveira is bum or not in his fight against Dustin.
@@jonathan6730 I don’t think you’re a bum if you’ve made it to ufc.,
He’s an animal with the ground game those submissions are insane .. I would have loved to see khabib fight this dude
Hope he wins n calls out Khabib
@@shivendrasaxena2199 he won't, and Khabib looking kind of fat right now, would take him 3 months to get back into shape. I really hope Poirier wins and sends Connor packing, because Connor just holds up everything.
@@FGame2star imap your comment aged poorly
@@barry2349 i said he won't about calling Khabib dummy
155lb weight division was crumbled while KHABIB was there further more oliverer ain't no match for khabib. weak chin, Lack Of stand up strikes , khabib will dismantle Oli n break his will
I remember him entering as a purple belt and he's now a 3rd degree black belt.
You think he will sub Mike? Or stay on the feet ?
@@pascualtorres6917 Sub. Even if you're about to go down, Oliveira will grab your neck.
@@pascualtorres6917 nahhh, don't forget he's a great wrestler. Mike will K.O him for sure.
Charles by sub or mike by KO my guess 50/50 lol
@Thiago Oliveira time will tell
No Freakin way I see this goin the distance. Someone is goin to sleep.
@Marduk Sensei looks like the judges will not have a lot of work in the main event
Or breaking something
Some one getting choked out
Bruh Olievera knocked Chandler out!
@@Ghost-vl2zw the irony dude
How can you not love this guy! Amazing fighter, never gave up and now he's champ.
One of the most talented and hardworking fighters in UFC
I m so glad that Tony is getting the title shot after all
Is this supposed to be a joke that Charles is the new tony or that Tony is never getting a shot?
@@seanhickey1999 Alot of Tony fans are seeing Charles as the new age Tony Ferg, good standup and great submissions plus he's gotten good at wrestling. Charles is seen more as a Torch bearer of Tony
@@bobbob-cd9yl dont forget alot of people see resemblance in both their appearances
@@bobbob-cd9yl it’s that they look alike. When tony and oliveira were scheduled to fight people said that Charles was the evil tony in an alternative universe💀
@@bobbob-cd9yl thats like disrespecting Olivera, cuz he has his own identity
Charles Oliviera, the type of guy to fool people into thinking he's the new El Cucuy
not really new. he's the "younger" version ;)
The Smarter version!
Ferguson slices people up with elbows and punches. Oliveira doesn't do that.
@@porkerpete7722 Ferguson is also the dumbest defensive fighter in all the UFC which is why he always takes hell of beaten whether he wins or loses... Oliverer doesn’t do that
Damn..that's a meta joke their..that's next level.
7:52 you can see he didnt even try that potential armbar, because he knew Tony wouldnt tap
he is a nice guy to safe tony,s career
Reminds me of Khabib during the Justin G fight chose a good night strangle over a broken arm cuz that wigger don’t tap.
Resect for Olivera , he would have thrown that armbar easily ❤️
@@duramaxdad what happened in that fight bro?explain pls
He saved Tony's arm. Some fighters have compassion just like khabib against Gaethje. Dude, you dont know anything about bjj else, you'd ve appreciated Oliveira's split decisions there.
Favorite fighter for me. Most submissions in UFC history and he's on an 8 fight win streak.
BRAZILIAN Jiu- Jitsu 🇧🇷🥋
Bottom line: Charlie is the real deal. Charlie vs Mike will be epic.
Damn. I though oliveira was a fake deal. Like some of those things you buy on ebay. But he ain’t
@@darioam3329 🤣
Crazy thing is I cant predict who will win the fight. Both fighters are insane on the feet and ground. From what I have seen I have to go with charles
imo it'll be a quick 1st round ko
Charles Oliveira v Mike Perry
He can pull off submissions from literally any position! It's uncanny he's never out of place!
It's hard to not root for Oliveira, he's a likable dude, has been around for so long and did so much to get here. Go get that belt, man!
I knew he is gonna be at the top one day... Charles I'm happy for you..... your skillset is amazing...
That entrance on 5:31 of charles was epic, the music, the way he extends his arm, bruce buffer watching him man that was of a movie he definitely deserves the title
7 months later and my guy is a ufc a champion 11 years later and defended it against porier, legend 💪🏽
@@Villainous98 and won again kkkk
Gotta give respect to Tony. His arm was pretty much unusable after the first round but to still make it to a decision against the best grappler currently in the lightweight division is insane.
Thats true if anyone's ever been put it a tight arm bar like that your arms pretty much done.
Have you seen Islam makhachev ... Better then khabib . Watch him you will forget about olivera
More like respect to Oliveira. He stopped going for that arm after he realised he fucked it up.
@@valyhabibov2782 He ain't better than Khabib. He has better stand up, but Khabib's ground game is on another level
@@Jp19981 khabib didn’t face anyone with a good ground game, what are you talking about?

That dance is fire🔥🔥 5:12
New king of LW division 👑
@Victor Palacios makachev will choke them both
@@makwieli I forgot about Makachev, him vs Charles is must see, that fight is going to be craaaay.
@Victor Palacios Damn see you betraying your latino brothers, anyways you fucked up lol.
Charles Olivera is one of the most underrated fighters ever. The man is super dangerous everywhere. He 100% deserves and has earned his place as UFC lightweight champion of the world.
He's always been fun to watch, so cool to see him finally put it all together
He's now officially the new king of light weight division. Respect from 🇮🇳
I love a guy who falls down but keeps climbing til he reaches the top
One of my favorite UFC fighter Not boring to watch in grappling and humble guy. Hope he win against porrier
I hate how the UFC loves Kevin Lee so much, they aren’t even going to show how Charles put him out smh
He is going to be the new champion 🇧🇷🔥💯
@David Kenyon No one, khabib retired and vacated the belt.
@David Kenyon no one but Charles is going to be the new champion
@Victor Palacios nah olivara by sub
@Victor Palacios he got 14 subs...will be 15 saturday.
@Victor Palacios 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a career. Seen him get ko'd, seen him ko others, breaks the record for most submissions in the UFC with 12 or 13. He came in as mostly a ground specialist but his striking has developed well throughout the years, has had some great fights through the years, dominates Tony Ferguson in route to a title shot. Good luck Charles you got a tough opponent ahead of you
Why do guys keep trying to take him down are they ever gonna learn😂
It’s like Diaz. “Oh so your a wrestler now.”
Abel Trujillo: *shoots a takedown against khabib* Khabib: *defends it* and said. "As you wish" LOL
He's been submitted half of his losses is not impossible to make him tap just certain fighters can an can't those who tried failed lately but the others have been taken down have olviveira neck, leg as trophies
@@duramaxdad Nate did the exact same thing against Anthony Pettis
Officially my favourite fighter currently. Wow, such skill. This guy has increased my interest in watching jujitsu ten fold.
Chandler is in trouble. Holy shit the way he was transitioning was so fucking smooth. My god...
Olievera is one of the smoothest submision grapplers ive seen in mma the way he moves is amazing but chandlers a bad match up short stocky wrestler who blitzes olievera is really good when his pushing the pace but when you pressure him he tends to break and chandler will do that all night, i still want olievera to win i just dont see it happening
It's the exact opposite. Chandler is a horrible match up for him. Charles gets tagged a lot on his feet and chandler can put him to bed with 1 punch. Chandler is faster, stronger, has better wrestling... Only thing Charles has for chandler is his submission game but chandler has amazing fight iq so I doubt he gets caught.
@@masterlogray thats what i was saying dude chandler is a bad match up for olievera meaning i believe chandler will win easily
We will find out Saturday. Can’t wait to see how it plays out!
@@davidm5647 true
3:02 best moments!
One of the best in UFC history 😍
Every fighter has a defining quality, Charles’s from my perspective is his cool head to constantly think of the next best move on the ground.
Charles Oliveira and Aleksei Oleinik are the two of the best submission masters I’ve ever seen.
Werdum schooled Aleksei on the ground. Have you seen their fight?

I like how he's by far one of the best bjj fighters in the ufc but has still been submitted 3 times, it really goes to show anything can happen in a fight.
Yep. The times he got submitted he gassed himself going for the finish and then got guillotined during a takedown.
it goes to say this guy goes for the finish every second, at least early in his career. That will leave you open.
Only after gassing out
His jj attack is much better than his defense
then imagine how great is khabib to never get submitted, nor even a knock down.
Charles Oliveira Straight Up Gangster.👊👊
I have mained Charles Oliveria since UFC 2. Dude has always been a beast in my eyes. Glad he closer tot hat belt. Proud to say this dude has ben my favourite fighter for that damn long. Lets goooo!
I hope Charles gets it! Greetings from the Czech republic.
Nearly 11years determination to win his tittle... Congrats champ.. Greeting from Sarawak,Malaysia
knocked out jared gordon twice with one punch lmao gotta love him ,no matter what happens i’m so happy he made it to the top
His transitions are 🔥
He is a champion material ...great ground game with good knockout power
We've been waiting for this 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Khabib Nurmagomedov, Dustin Poirier, And Now It's Charles Oliveira Time 👑👑🔥
I wonder if he had a chance with khabib back then.. how will he par??? This dude is insane. 💯🙌🏻
Ikr. Khabib retired right on time lol.
Khabib would have demolished Oliveira. Oliveira is very talented, but thrives as the hammer, not so much as the nail. Khabib was NEVER in compromising positions, spends much of his time is side control and half guard.
He would get smeshed.
@@jeffgillson Ok, never is a bit much. Dustin got him in a choke. I know Khabib said afterwards that that was part of the plan, but Oliveira is amazing on the ground...
@@siliziwencanywa1138 it was unexpected. Oliverias threat is well known. Khabib would spend camp training to make sure he doesn't get caught
You guys forgot to put one of Olivera's greatest wins, The submission win over Kevin Lee!
Loving these fighter timelines
Charles winning the championship after 28 UFC fights is a beautiful thing.
Charles is a great fighter and person
Notice something, I've never heard of this guy before, this is the first video I ever see of him. And he would put Conor away in less than 30 seconds obviously. Now why is this guy not being promoted? Of yeah, because he isn't trying to turn the sport into a circus..
What do you mean?
I think this is because he never joined the trash talking game to promote his fights. Brazilian fighters struggle to speak English yet this is not part of the Brazilian culture
Because English isn’t his main language so he can’t talk shit or really sell fights which immediately makes him useless to Dana
Because is Brazilian
4:13 i gotta say, this is the prettiest submission ive ever seen, its so clean that the guy instantly taps out
These fighter timelines are gonna bless in the future
That's an impressive resume but i think many many big names are missing
If he fights Justin I see him winning so as him vs Dustin I see him beating most of the top 5. However I feel Michael Chandler is a stylistic nightmare for him
@@bobbob-cd9yl couldn't agree more. Chandler is hardcore and their fighting styles are very different. Anything could happen
You dont have to fight someone with big names to get a title shot.. if oliveira fought some big names he couldve gotten a shot right away but no. This guy started at UFC 10 years ago and just got his shot. BY BEATING TONY SAYS IT ALL. Well Tony has only a few couple of wins against big names which is Cerrone, RDA, and Pettis. Everyone is saying the same to Khabib too. Khabib has only fought 4 big names. But let me tell you something.. Khabib aint got a title shot right away even on his impressive record back then. UFC doesnt want him to get a hold of the title, but khabib works hard and have earned it. Imagine if Khabib got his title shot at 23-0. Maybe he couldve fought Chandler, Tony and other guys. Plus he started at UFC pretty late. If Khabib debuted at UFC with the record 10-0 imagine what he's gon do.
@@daghetto101 tbh Charles has fought big names, Felder, Max holloway, Frankie edgar, Jeremy stephens, Donald Cerrone, Jim Miller, Cub Swanson, Anthony pettis, Guida and Kevin Lee. The problem is he lost to most of those big names
@@daghetto101 Khadib actually fought monsters , I don’t know what people are smoking

I hope he wins the title, he deserves it.
Ótimo profissional, sou fã demais!! pra cima Oliveira..
Been a fan since his debut, he's finally been able to put everything together n really hope he wins the championship.
Fantastic fighter. Humble dude. Deadly combination.

Monster... GO BRAZIL!!!!
when it's all said and done this guy will be in the goat convo
Yesssssssss been waiting for this
0:56 brings back memories "it is all over" I remember that in UFC game 2011 the one with brock lesnar frank mir anderson Silva etc in it
I had no idea he's only 31... 27 UFC fights at only 31 years of age!
3:07 that power and control man is something. I'm amazed he didnt go out and much respect always letting go at the tap
11 years later and he’s the champ. Congrats 🙌🏻💯
Oliveria scares me. He is like a guy that would dismember you with a chainsaw, and not feel anything, during or afterwards. He is like The Terminator, fearless, remorseless, driven. When he and Poirier fight, my heart says Poirier, but my brain, and wallet, say Oliveira.
I love watching Jared Gordon get knocked out. They're so brutal and he goes down so easily. Love it.
Olivera has been at it in the UFC since 20 and has become a legend in my opinion I’m happy he gets this opportunity
0:40 what a transition 😯
He is the only one who represents BJJ as a very dominating art in the UFC
This guy deserves LW gold he is amazing with that submission skills, just incredible how easily he finish guys 👏

The best BJJ savage 💯 i have ever seen
2:15 possibly never done before!! That's next level bjj
Its called "Calf Slicer" a BJJ move. Everyone is mad back then how Rogan didnt notice and knows that loool. If i remember correctly In Charles Oliveira's bio via UFC it said that he's the first who did a Calf Slicer in UFC.
Charles Oliveira 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
His transition from striking to grappling/submission is second to none imo. Damn he’s smooth. So hyped to see him handle Chandler. He SHOULD be able to but then again Chandler seem hell bent on success.
So clean, so calm, so Charles
This woulda been the legit test for khabib!
Oliveira is so underratted. He's the only challenge for Khabib. #ANDNEW
Could be, but rather no. Khabib is a bad match up for Oliveira. Oliveira is a better BJJ artist, so smooth. But in terms of grappling in combination with wrestling, that's what made Khabib unique, plus cardio. Most jitsers arent great wrestlers, Khabibs ground control is rrelentless, I mean if Felder could do it...
