Oliveira vs Topuria this saturday. Who yall got?

Oliveira had a hell of a title run and looked like he was going to get knocked out most of those fights, but then redeemed himself until he fought islam.

Topurias first fight at 155, but coming off back to back knock outs of the two men that were unstoppable in the 145 division. Only man to knock out Holloway and only Featherweight to take out Volk.

Should be a hell of a fight. I want Charles to win, but Topuria is undeniable. dude is a absolute beast and i think he will only be even more deadly at 155 not having to cut so much weight.
 
I’m pulling for Do Bronx so hard. Him losing would feel like the end of an era. Topturo is fucking cringe sometimes. But his power is unreal, and I worry about Charles ability to avoid taking big shots.

I just want to see Charles fight smart. He’s not the best wrestler but the man can scramble with the best of them.

I know I’m going to be wrong, but I think the X factor with be Charles ability to get into an advantageous position on the ground. I picking Charles to win by RNC.
 
Also, fuck Jon Jones. The dude is fucking weird man. I’m telling yall I met him in a hotel lobby and got a photo with him once. The dudes aura is fucking dark man. He’s like watching a movie when you’re high and you can see the acting.

This. Charles can't trade shots with topuria for too long. Charles gets caught damn near every fight and while he most often manages to recover and KO or submit his opponent after, it's going to be too risky doing that with topuria. I think Charles is going to have to rely on the clinch, get in close and give out some shots but ultimately get topurias back whether on the feet or the ground. We haven't seen a whole lot of it but topuria has a pretty good ground game, but like you mentioned Charles is great at scrambling and I think would be able to get the better of topuria.

It's gonna be a hell of a fight though. Either topuria by knock out or Oliveira by RNC is my guess.
 
I was worried for talbott after he got ran over in his last fight. Had zero ground game but like the announcers said he made damn good improvement. Lima had some great shots in the beginning but talbott really started getting in the flow in the second round. It's awesome to see him bounce back from his loss when everyone was saying he got fraud checked. Its okay to lose, but he seems to have corrected the mistakes.

If he keeps going, that homo is gonna be a problem for the bantamweights.
