Charles Oliveira is without doubt one of the most battle examined fighters in UFC historical past and a previous opponent of his has weighed in on Oliveira’s looming rematch with Max Holloway. As Oliveira goals to battle Holloway for the latter’s BMF title, Clay Guida provided up some ideas on that UFC 326 headliner, as Guida stated [via Bowks Talking Bouts],
“Man, you speak about two of my favourite guys to ever grace the octagon. Two guys, in case you noticed them strolling down the street, didn’t know something about sports activities, didn’t know something about combined martial arts, most likely wouldn’t assume that these guys are world champs, former world champs. Two of probably the most dominant badass dudes within the UFC of all time. I’ll put these guys immediate corridor of famers assured.”
“First poll, the day they retire, growth, they need to be inducted instantly after. Two guys, yeah, like I stated, very unassuming that don’t actually appear to be fighters, you already know what I imply? Once you see them go on the market, they’re each little bit of what you wish to see in a champion, what you wish to see in a fighter, somebody that represents your nation, somebody that represents the game very, very nicely.”
“I’m so pumped about that occasion. That combat’s going to be balls to the wall. Two extremely expert athletes that haven’t slowed down of their profession. They’ve completed nothing however enhance, it’s unreal. I keep in mind there was that point when Oliveira was going backwards and forwards between ’45 and ’55 when he was the youngest. I feel at one level he may need been the youngest UFC fighter a very long time in the past.”

When additional discussing ‘do Bronx’ Oliveira earlier than additionally describing his viewpoint on ‘Blessed’ Holloway, Guida continued [via Bowks Talking Bouts],
“I feel he got here in when he was 18 or 19, 20 or one thing like that. He had a variety of hype round him after which individuals had been like, “Oh, you already know, blah blah blah this and that.” However then he received again on his horse at 155 and yeah, sadly he beat me about 5 miles from right here in Chicago on the home that Michael Jordan constructed. I fought him on the United Heart in entrance of a house crowd and protected to say it didn’t go very nicely. Didn’t go as deliberate.”
“However that was the primary combat of his trajectory when he went on what I name some of the outstanding light-weight runs or UFC runs of all time. I feel he gained like perhaps eight or ten straight fights in that run to having that title, defending that belt for fairly a while. So, he’s unbelievable. The man simply retains getting higher, retains placing high tier athletes away. Max Holloway then again, this man simply continues to not shock me.”
“He continues to impress me every efficiency out and in. It’s simply unreal. The man I imply, he beats wrestlers, he beats jiu-jitsu guys, he beats strikers, he beats boxers, and he beats them with authority. He actually takes these guys will from them. He makes these guys give up in there. He factors to his opponent, he factors to the mat, he places his arms up, and he backs it up. You realize, he’s pure leisure.”
“The man doesn’t appear to be he might harm a fly, you already know what I imply? If you happen to see him, however when he will get in there, that dude is all enterprise. Simply an absolute savage. So, this combat it’s received all of the makings of a combat of the 12 months, combat of the evening, for certain. You get to see two legends go at it for the BMF belt and who extra deserving than these guys. So yeah, as you’ll be able to inform, I’m a bit of bit enthusiastic about this matchup.”
