The former UFC middleweight champion talked about how he thinks ‘Do Bronx’ will do great against whoever he faces.
“Listen, I’m telling you, Charles Oliveira, We’re talking about Conor McGregor vs Dustin Poirier being the next challenge for the belt, and that probably is a very likely scenario. Whoever wins that fight and then common knowledge would probably think whoever wins that fight is going to fight Charles and beat Charles.
“I don’t know man, as I said we’re in the Olive era right because the man as we saw he’s got the most submissions in the UFC, he can wrestle, he took down chandler with a beautiful double leg. He’s got tons of experience and he’s got knockout fuckin*g power. The man’s knocking people out now.”
