"Charles will Finish Him!” Islam Makhachev Finally Predicts UFC 317

“It depends, man. Who can follow his game plan? You know, if Charles Oliveira can take him down, he can finish him easy in the ground. Or if Ilia Topuria Topuria catch him, he going to sleep, you know. And two option, who is going to make the game plan working.”

“I'm going to Deoria. Uh the reason why is because when you look at Charles Oliveira Oliveira's last couple fights, you know, when he fought Justin Tafa, Dustin Porier, uh you know, Michael Chandler even, he's been hurt in every single one of those fights. Yeah. He gets dropped and he goes to his back and then a lot of those guys even Il even Islam hurt him on the feet and a lot of those guys don't follow him to the ground. They allowed him to get back up and he gets back in a gunfight and he's able to put those guys out. Now I'm betting on that Ili is going to hurt him and when he does hurt him he's going to follow the ground and try to finish him like Islam did. At the end of the day, I'm going to go with Il Deoria. And I know someone's getting knocked the out.”
