It was first time Charles faced someone that was willing to fight him everywhere since his title run. Nothing worked for Charles but respect to him, i dont think he "broke", he tried to win but knew he was outmatched. He went for something crazy early because he knew it would just get worse and took a gamble.

Rewatching this fight, I think Charles understimated Islam. The way he tried to throw Islam was like he wanted to prove that he was the better grappler in every aspects. This time he's going to be very cautious and this next fight is much more watchable.

Its the same with Islam as it was with Khabib in that part. Their defensive striking is elite for MMA, while their offensive is decent. On the ground Islam thinks defense first and he is elite, Khabib was thinking offense first, but only after establishing a dominant position. Position first, then attack. Both have a far higher fight IQ than Oliveira for sure. Fighters who only think offensively like Charles are super exciting to watch, but none of them has a high fight IQ, that is Charles's biggest weakness.

Excellent breakdown! But i don’t think Khabib’s caliber of opponents is much different from Charles’. Khabib had a difficult time getting ppl in Top5 or even Top10 to fight him early in his career - High risk, low reward.What he was able to do against prime RDA was impressive.

Because Islam's path to victory is already defined. On the feet he just needs to be defensively sound, and wait for Charles to take a risk. Whether that opens him up to a counter like in the first fight, or a takedown. On the ground, he just needs to do what he always does and stay slow and methodical and not take needless risks. As long as he does those two things, he beats Olives every time. Olives is the one who most likely needs to take a risk in order to win. He needs to open up his guard and hope that Islam falls into a sub. He needs to throw kicks or big strikes to get reactions out of Islams defense. It's still like 70-30 for Islam, but it's not like Islam can't make a mistake too.

You are wrong. His strength is pressure from the start and he should have made better use of his reach and left the Russian frustrated in the exchange so that when the Russian tried to grab his legs he could apply his deadly guillotine. He really wasn't in that fight in terms of attacking. It seems to me that he fell into the Russian trap and let his anger speak for him through the speeches of Khabib and Islam. He came in throwing disjointed and confused blows and apparently hadn't corrected mistakes from other fights. The flying knee was completely wrong and that's why he suffered a knockdown. Against Dariush we already saw an evolution of these errors. He improved his defense against blows to the face and did not suffer knockdown. It wasn't Dariush who took him down, it was him who tried to take down Beni at the wrong time and with his body crooked and ended up on the bottom. I believe Charles will win by submission. If his hand goes in and the Russian feels like he felt with the volkanovski, Charles will catch him and if he doesn't hit he will go sleep. Charles will shock the world again and show that the lightweight lion still roars

I gotta disagree that their fight history can’t be compared. The two most impressive and highest ranked wins were against guys that khabib beat dominantly. Then it’s basically Lee, Ferguson, Chandler, Gordon for Charles vs rda, mcgregor, Johnson and Barboza for Khabib.

The Khabib Gym dudes, they fight clean, structured, disciplined. They don't do wild shit and don't make simple mistakes. Elsewhere in the world (except maybe thailand) fighters are more "creative" (I'm not sure if its actual creativity or main-character-syndrom sometimes), but they make a lot of mistakes that the absolutely disciplined fighters take advantage of. I've seen this in almost every Khabib fight.

Love these breakdowns👌Wealth of knowledge in these vids

I would agree with the goat thing but when khabib takes you down you don’t get back up unless he wants you too🤷🏾‍♂️

If Charles can strengthen his defense on the feet, I think he’s got a chance. I really think he needs to stay off the ground and out of the clinch. He’s got power and he should utilize it. Maybe keep the distance, kick the legs, sharpen the striking and striking defense, and get creative. I think that’s his path to victory here. Volk got creative on the feet (like the feint jab, then switched to southpaw and hit Islam with a lead hook) which dropped him, and gives you a chance to finish him. Charles has the power to put him down, or at least drop him. Charles could even possibly submit Islam if he hurts him bad enough.

Keep up the great video Mighty! Big fan

​@@jacklol72 Justin and Dustin lost their balls when Islam was ranked below them. Same with Umar, UFC had to find an opponent form another organization cuz no one want to fight him. Can't blame the fighter if others lose their balls and act like pussies.

I hope Charles will use his razor sharp elbows this time in the standup as well. And I wanna see more ufc fighters going for more elbows in the Clinch like in Muay Thai

awesome breakdown Champ! keep 'em coming GOAT!

Would be nice to have a video like that on Costa/Chimaev as well

Khabib could have had soooo many defenses had he got a shot at the belt like Jones or GSP. They got title shots after less than 6 months in top ten. Khabib spent a total of 5 years ranked in the top ten without losing a round before he finally got a title shot. WTF Dana?

Nice breakdown 🐐 Islam is gonna win for sure with khabib in his corner this will br a tough fight for Charles

Gleison Tibau took him down! He lost a round to Mcgregor! He was never submitted or knocked out! never lost in MMA! There are only 13 fights in the UFC! He never bled because he always masterfully took down his opponents and always retreated in stand-up fights. Khabib is great but for me he is not the Goat, and that's ok, that doesn't change the fact that he is a legend, but these are facts

The problem is that Olives mental game is razor thin. Who actually knows how he feels, but if he gets back in there and doesn't have luck on the feet; and gets neutralized on the ground again; what is he going to tell himself then that is going to change the outcome? Now if he goes in there and lands a big shot right away, or is able to threaten a sub early on; then maybe he can ride his confidence. But that would've been true in the first fight too. So it's not like it's really different. The main difference is that Islam knows that as long as he stays safe, and doesn't force anything dangerous; then he can follow the same route to victory that he managed already.

Oliveira lost many times and missed weight many times and got dropped in every title fight, vs Poirier, Gaethje and Chandler. That excuse make no sense Oliveira was always in danger of losing during his title fights, how he was not same?

Charles tapped quick, rapidly tapping, bro was trying to get outta of there quick

We need a updated version for Volk now😭

Charles making mistakes, getting dropped almost every fight and him giving up does not put him over khabib on the #1 LW 🐐 list. Love him tho, he’s one of the most exciting fighters atm.

Regardless of if Charles ever wins the belt back, the run he went on was absolutely insane and so damn fun to watch as he was the true journeyman comeback story of the UFC. Bisping’s story was awesome too but he didn’t have the same reputation as Charles in that everyone thought Charles would never be champ because he lacked heart and gave up too much just to beat the baddest mfers and made it look easy

When you talk about GOAT, you have to look at entire career. Oliveira had an insane championship run and ran through 4 of the top 5 but the way he’s been destroyed in the past, you just can’t forget about that. He’s maybe top 7 lightweight of all time

And saying “maybe top 7” is ABSURD

The thing about Charles is that, yes, he's fought everybody, but he's not that special. He's so vulnerable and most of his wins via submission were either after being dropped or almost KOed, while Khabib and Islam dominated every opponent they had.

Thank you for the break down. Awesome from one of the goat.

Hey dj I hope to see move of these breakdowns!

Do you think the reason Charles kept Islam in closed guard instead of open is because the Dagestanis are well known for their dominance in mount. So maybe he did not want to take the risk of allowing Islam passing his guard?

The guys he's beat? No one Charles has beaten on his way to the title went on to have another win in the top 15. Khabib still has 3 pre-title opponents still active in the promotion. The opponents they have in common Khabib ran through while Charles was dropped by and had to lay down and recover. So Charles is not even close. He's an exciting fighter for sure, but the resumes are not comparable. Even Islam's pre-title wins from the past 3 years have aged extremely well in comparison. Even Bobby Green is now a top 10 LW and Hooker, Dober, and Moises are all still competitively relevant in or just outside the top 15. So I would say Charles needs to emphatically beat down Islam in this rematch for those two to even be comparable, let alone Khabib. Great breakdown though. You gonna do Usman vs Primus?

Dana just announced that Charles is not gonna headline, so it'll be Volk vs Islam Pt 2... I'm excited

If Makhachev manages to beat Oliveira again he will occupy the spot as the nr.2 lw of all time and if he defends one more time he will be the lw goat

I mean, Islam already has a decent argument for #2. No one else in the promotions history has beaten #2 and #1 PFP back to back, except Islam. He ended two of the longest win strikes in UFC history, back to back. And is currently on one of the longest win streaks in UFC history himself. The only thing you really can't give to Islam is longevity. He's beaten competition at the very peak of the sport, but he hasn't been doing it for as long as some of the other greats. If he managed to be Olives again, it'll be tough not to give him the #2 spot. But it's reasonable to place him there already.

There is no way you have Charles above Khabib as of right now

Bro your fight breakdowns are the greatest. I love the fact that you say it how it is and despite who the fighters are your not biased. This is why I love this channel so much. Also I think the greatest every is subjective. If you say it’s Charles I think your right even though I don’t agree. For me it has to be khabib. If Charles lost to islam there is no way he beats khabib. I just don’t see it. I feel like Islam and khabib are just a hard fight for him. Charles was saved so many times in fights because no one wanted to go to the ground with him so he could recover from knockdowns. Now you have Islam and khabib who will go wherever the fight goes. I think that takes away a big advantage Charles had over everyone else he fought. I just can’t call Charles the goat of that division if I think someone else would easily beat them.

islam is too overwhelming

The Charles GOAT argument starting off with he lost to Cub and not sure if he fought Pettis, was priceless

DJ bro, you are a genius fighter, like seriously! You are my favorite MMA fighter, the true GOAT of the sport and the best pound for pound in the planet, well thats my opinion and obviously i enjoy watching your videos. Much love ❤

was looking forward to this

He did shockingly well in the stand up vs Volk too. I can no longer disrespect or sleep on his and khabib's caveman style of kickboxing. Makachev will likely finish him again cos charles quits. its in his blood imo charles is a lesser (homeless mans)version of diaz at 155 or tony ferg 5yrs ago. DIaz would beat him if they fought today. likely by sub too cos charles loves to tap and he over-commits to his strikes and under commits to his sub attempts. He'd be better than all of them, were it not for his weasel heart
