Pressured the fighter with the heaviest hands in 155lb division's history, and subbed him in the first round. The champ has a name, and his name is Charles Oliveira.

Finished Chandler,Poirier, and Gaethje all in one year I would say so. His shot placement is really good but he has to have some more power than they give him credit for lol no one floors Gaethje like that with one punch
To be fair, the translator may have been trying to help Charles. Dana did say they are still paying Oliviera the PPV share (I have no idea who is to blame on the scale drama)
I love a good conspiracy. Why would the UFC want him out as champ? He seems to be universally liked by the fans and the media. He is a popular and likeable champion. I don't see any upside in taking his belt.
Yes this is the most aggravating part about translators. They PC the shit out of the man’s words. It seems as if they tip toe or at the least glance over his controversial opinions
If he knew he had made weight, why did he show up 5 minutes before the end of weigh ins and not come early? Seems super sketchy. Typically that means they were cutting until the very last minute.
If you watch Gaethje he’s not a very technical fighter. He’s a wild striker with heavy hands. Charles and Dustin are much more technical. I mean we all need to talk about Charles having heavy hands. The guy knocks people out as well.
He's definitely not the superior striker in terms of skill but he has good striking with insane power, hence the 2 knockdowns. Charles is a very technical striker and everything is so perfect and accurate which leads to his power.
like i was telling my buddies charles looked like the better striker in terms of technicality. i’ve watched charlie for years and he always goes to his back after taking big hits. he plays it like it isn’t a knockdown. i don’t think giving charles time to lay on his back and recover was a good idea for gaethje but taking it to the ground was not the way either. this fight was so heavy in charlie’s favor giving he just had to not take a one punch knockout
Totally agree. Charles is a fantastic fighter. I'm a huge Justin fan and am not liking the hate and disrespect he is getting. The fight could have easily gone the other way. It was a one round fight that either could have won. I reckon Charles would have won it 60 or 70%.
Give it a week and they will change it hopefully. Maybe they are doing this to setup the Islam fight since Charles didn't look interested. Khabib and Islam seem like a tough matchup for Charles because they are always about control and position. So he would have less opportunities. I would still think he can pull it off though.
heartbroken over Gaethjes loss but so happy for Oliviera! Hes an inspiration and I respect tf out of him. I wish Khabib was still fighting, what a match that would have been.
Feel like the rage of being denied his belt by that bs scale fiasco made him come out with that fire under his ass. Charles might have surpassed Edgar as having the best heart of all time.
As soon as he dropped Justin, you knew it was over. Olivera's ground game is insane. Justin was hitting him with some bombs early and I thought "uh-oh". Charlie's chin is solid, he is fucking serious trouble for anyone right now. I was crazy impressed.
Hope he starts some legal action to get back his 30% of his purse and also the ppv points. That weigh in was some rinky dink nonsense, UFC scale out of whack/commission holding the weigh ins against their own laws.
I can understand why they stripped him of his belt and even find It a little bit funny but the man is a beast. He deserves the same love that other superstars in the sport do bcs guy is consistent as fuck (and no matter that he's not the champ anymore, the fans deserve to see a prime charles vs Islam)
Took him long enough to be a champ. I'm sure someone's gonna have to kill him to take that belt from him. God I hope he doesn't pop for PEDs. Anderson Silva destroyed his GOAT image with that for me.
Gaethe looked wild. He was going for bombs, some connected some were big misses which wasn't good. Idk man where's he go next? But Oliveira is the man for sure. Sucks about the weight issue
I will never be the guy who claimed to have thought a certain outcome would happen without actually saying it first…but I fuckin’ kneeew it! I like Justin but the primary weapon in his arsenal is being a hard hitter and i think that’s about it. There was never a single doubt in my mind that one of the best submission guys out there would….I don’t know…. submit him? Even with all of the weigh-in, title stripping hubaloo…did we think there would be any other outcome?
After all the mind games and adversity from yesterday, I'm so happy for Charles! Other people might not handle stress that way, that man channeled it into a super power.
Heaviest hands? Not even close. Charles does just as much if not more damage with his strikes. The difference is that he’s not wildly swinging all the time like the retard Gaethje.
Straight bullshit what the UFC is doing to this man. Arguably on route to overtaking khabib with how impressive his fights are. Fucked him over for the belt, didn’t do anything to rectify it. Took a fuck load of money off him and now we have to wait in limbo for the rightful champ to get his belt back. Smh.
“The champ has a name, and his name is Charles Oliveira.” What a statement. A statement that will probably be remembered for years upon years in the UFC. THE CHAMP HAS A NAME, AND HIS NAME IS CHARLE OLIVEIRA!
Never having watched any kind of sport before, I bought ESPN+ and 274 just to see this fight and see why so many people hail him as the LW champ. It was so amazing and it put into perspective that awful strawweight title fight. If you’re a champ, you show why you’re the champ. My first time seeing Rose fight in that didn’t do any of that for me.
This dude is scary as fuck.
Did it off of a bad weight cut and being stripped of his belt, knocked him down, and subbed him faster than Khabib.
Anyone one of y’all know what’s that theme song that Charles was playing during embedded? The one about his story
Finished Chandler,Poirier, and Gaethje all in one year I would say so. His shot placement is really good but he has to have some more power than they give him credit for lol no one floors Gaethje like that with one punch
Straight killer
He just said "I weighted 155 on Thursday, and Friday the UFC stole my belt ' and the translator decided not to say it 🤫
YES! Someone needs to subtitle it and spread it around
To be fair, the translator may have been trying to help Charles. Dana did say they are still paying Oliviera the PPV share (I have no idea who is to blame on the scale drama)
really?
I often watch the translators glaze over. But to leave that out is a company-move.
I love a good conspiracy. Why would the UFC want him out as champ? He seems to be universally liked by the fans and the media. He is a popular and likeable champion. I don't see any upside in taking his belt.
Yes this is the most aggravating part about translators. They PC the shit out of the man’s words. It seems as if they tip toe or at the least glance over his controversial opinions
Anybody else notice the way he kept his back turned on Joe the whole time. Only talking to the translator barely even joe or the mic for that matter
Doesn’t matter what he weighed on Thur. The scale on Friday is what matters.
If he knew he had made weight, why did he show up 5 minutes before the end of weigh ins and not come early? Seems super sketchy. Typically that means they were cutting until the very last minute.
Such a gangster, walked straight into Justin willingly and exchanged willingly. I was so nervous
I was shouting "take him down"
That’s a real G! No to boring crotch sniffers
Jiu Jitsu is cheating when paired with elite hands
When Charles jumped onto Justin after that knock down we all knew that the fight was as good as over.
Yeah olives op pls nerf
That gard pull was slick
Knocked down both Chandler and Gaethje. Looks like he is the one with heavy hands
It’s like Damian Maia and Conor had a baby raised by Anderson silva or something
Justins power is so overrated.
Lol Gaethje didn't look like the superior striker when's the last time you saw someone sit Gaethje down like that?
If you watch Gaethje he’s not a very technical fighter. He’s a wild striker with heavy hands. Charles and Dustin are much more technical. I mean we all need to talk about Charles having heavy hands. The guy knocks people out as well.
He's definitely not the superior striker in terms of skill but he has good striking with insane power, hence the 2 knockdowns. Charles is a very technical striker and everything is so perfect and accurate which leads to his power.
Tony and Chandler, Justin has always had a habit of getting hurt in the stand up
Didn’t UGK drop him in their fight?
Dustin outboxed him in my opinion it was still close due to Justin’s power and aggression
like i was telling my buddies charles looked like the better striker in terms of technicality. i’ve watched charlie for years and he always goes to his back after taking big hits. he plays it like it isn’t a knockdown. i don’t think giving charles time to lay on his back and recover was a good idea for gaethje but taking it to the ground was not the way either. this fight was so heavy in charlie’s favor giving he just had to not take a one punch knockout
[удалено]
He’s fucking amazing. I wanted Justin to win. But god damn olivera is good. Looks like him vs islam
i have never been as excited for a grappling match as i am for islam vs olivera. who knows maybe they keep it standing?
Totally agree. Charles is a fantastic fighter. I'm a huge Justin fan and am not liking the hate and disrespect he is getting. The fight could have easily gone the other way. It was a one round fight that either could have won. I reckon Charles would have won it 60 or 70%.
Man the way he pulled guard was so badass to me I don't know why, he's pretty much carrying BJJ in the UFC at this point.
It's really the sheer confidence that impresses me honestly.
Does this mean BJJ isn't a top grappling/wrestling discipline
Also don’t forget when he pulled guard he slammed Justin head on the canvas. Brownie points
[удалено]
Charles IS Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
100% he is getting that belt back
Hey that was his second title defense in my book
Give it a week and they will change it hopefully. Maybe they are doing this to setup the Islam fight since Charles didn't look interested. Khabib and Islam seem like a tough matchup for Charles because they are always about control and position. So he would have less opportunities. I would still think he can pull it off though.
The champion already has a name
Dana told Charles to his face right after the fight that he wouldn’t give it back
Wasn’t Justin calling this bloke a quitter ? Respect to Charles. Give him his belt back uncle fester
Oliv ERA
Nice
i like this
Can this PLEASE become a thing! Maybe send it to du Bronx 😅
And he hurt him worse than Chandler over 3.
heartbroken over Gaethjes loss but so happy for Oliviera! Hes an inspiration and I respect tf out of him. I wish Khabib was still fighting, what a match that would have been.
I would say similar to bj Penn vs gsp. Dominant wrestler negates the jujitsu and Charles is so happy to go to the ground.
Fuck Gaethje. he about to be depressed like a mfer
Can't wait to see Charles fight Islam.
Fan wants it, this is inevitable. I dont think Connor stupid enought to want this fight with Oliv.
I think Olives versus Islam is the next fight for the lightweight title
Islam still needs to prove himself imo.
Charles is so fucking good. No one has earned it more than him
Holy fuck what a fight!
100%. Nothing but respect for me tonight, he is definitely the man at 1:55 right now. I will not doubt him again. Very impressive.
Charles was right he knocked got Dustin. Then koed chandler justin ain’t in his level.
I lost $100 dollars and i ain't even mad. Charles deserves to be the champion and he will be again.
THE CHAMP HAS A NAME AND HIS NAME IS CHARLES OLIVEIRA
HIS NAME IS ROBERT PAULSON
DoBronx was all business, exchanged with Justin took hits and went super saiyan and started smoking Justin at the end. Great fight
Feel like the rage of being denied his belt by that bs scale fiasco made him come out with that fire under his ass. Charles might have surpassed Edgar as having the best heart of all time.
Can’t believe so many people doubted him. I had him by ko/tko but sub is even better 😄
Give this man his belt back NOW!!!!
Oliveria is incredible.
Put some respekk on his name boys
But he doesn't have enough heart says Justin??
Justin doesn’t have heart, showed Justin
Number 1 pound for pound fighter in the world.
id sell my soul for chucky vs khabib
The closest we're gonna get is Makachev vs Charles
He Subreddited him during 2nd round?
You've got to respect him. Dude is an animal, absolutely fearless.
The resume is looking tremendous . He’s top 3 of the greatest lightweights of all time
Brazilians are just too goated
Pls nerf
HE'S THE MF GOAT. Knocked gaethje down and made him TAP
Have you just started watching? he was only champ because the GOAT retired
I'm Brazilian and man, this guy is somrthing else...
Charlie fucking Olives
The mothafuckin KING at 155
Soon to be 2x champion of the world
His teeth look like a mouthguard.
Fr charles is the truth.
"Heaviest hands" my ass. Justin rarely knocks anyone out.
As soon as he dropped Justin, you knew it was over. Olivera's ground game is insane. Justin was hitting him with some bombs early and I thought "uh-oh". Charlie's chin is solid, he is fucking serious trouble for anyone right now. I was crazy impressed.
The LW GOAT has a name and his name is Charles Oliveira
And Justin is still my boy!😓
Hopefully, he dials down on the ego now.
Khabib was ducking Oliveira. Got out just in time.
Yeah he timed the death of his Dad perfectly for it and everything!
This is pure delusion if you actually believe this. During the time Khabib was champion nobody was talking about Oliveira.
???? Bruh I hate this narrative, because Charles wasn't near when Khabib was fighting + Khabib's father passed away
He out punched him also. This guy is in the GOAT conversation
The over used sentence has a name, and that name is Charles oliviera
Beat Justin quicker and more decisively than Khabib. The true GOAT of the lightweight.
Quicker yes, but not more decisively. He tooks hits from Justin.
THE GOAT HAS A NAME
Hope he starts some legal action to get back his 30% of his purse and also the ppv points. That weigh in was some rinky dink nonsense, UFC scale out of whack/commission holding the weigh ins against their own laws.
GOAT
155.5*
The 155.5lb Champ of the UFC!
Weight cut bully.
CHARLIEEE
Hopefully he will become one of the greatest of all time at lw
This man is crazy. Gave a severe beatdown for Chandler, subbed Poirier, then knocked down and subbed Gaethje.
I’m not better against Charles anymore.
I can understand why they stripped him of his belt and even find It a little bit funny but the man is a beast. He deserves the same love that other superstars in the sport do bcs guy is consistent as fuck (and no matter that he's not the champ anymore, the fans deserve to see a prime charles vs Islam)
A famous victory. Seriously impressive stuff, I was so pumped for the champ.
Really happy Charles won. Now we can speculate about the "what if he fought Khabib" etc.
Took him long enough to be a champ. I'm sure someone's gonna have to kill him to take that belt from him. God I hope he doesn't pop for PEDs. Anderson Silva destroyed his GOAT image with that for me.
The correct term is he made Justin Gaethje quit
Anyone else see Charles start to key in on Gathjes leg kicks and hop over them?
Gaethe looked wild. He was going for bombs, some connected some were big misses which wasn't good. Idk man where's he go next? But Oliveira is the man for sure. Sucks about the weight issue
Charles Oliveira is like the cool Island Boy.
I will never be the guy who claimed to have thought a certain outcome would happen without actually saying it first…but I fuckin’ kneeew it! I like Justin but the primary weapon in his arsenal is being a hard hitter and i think that’s about it.

Even with all of the weigh-in, title stripping hubaloo…did we think there would be any other outcome?
After all the mind games and adversity from yesterday, I'm so happy for Charles! Other people might not handle stress that way, that man channeled it into a super power.
The champ has a name, it’s vacant
Gaycheese fans were calling him average in this sub. Where are all the Ali bots at now? Still think he’s average?
I know it’s a tough question but does he have the most dangerous BJJ in UFC history?
Nah, he had a 1/2 pound advantage.
Charles “FatBoy” Oliveira
Yea he’s dope and the champ, can we stop saying this “the champ has a name” shit, it’s so god damn lame. Lol
Charles has the heaviest hands.
I thought it was vacant.
Heaviest hands? Not even close. Charles does just as much if not more damage with his strikes. The difference is that he’s not wildly swinging all the time like the retard Gaethje.
Chandler has heavier hands than gaethje
Oh Charlie got the sledge hammer hands too apparently
Next time better cut to featherweight just to be safe.
I mean now shy Conor olives has beaten all of khabibs top wins more impressively
Straight bullshit what the UFC is doing to this man. Arguably on route to overtaking khabib with how impressive his fights are. Fucked him over for the belt, didn’t do anything to rectify it. Took a fuck load of money off him and now we have to wait in limbo for the rightful champ to get his belt back. Smh.
I love his energy post fight
Yeah but he's not though.
Long may he reign
Knocked down Garth and stunned him at least two other times.
In project mayhem one can have a name, his name is Charles Oliveira
The champs name right now is 'Vacant' I think ahaha
Not the heaviest hands in history, maybe the most technical hands ever but let's get real, he's not even top 3 heaviest hands in lightweight
“The champ has a name, and his name is Charles Oliveira.” What a statement. A statement that will probably be remembered for years upon years in the UFC. THE CHAMP HAS A NAME, AND HIS NAME IS CHARLE OLIVEIRA!
Folks really overestimate Gaethje’s power. He can crack for sure. But he is not the legendary power puncher he’s made out to be.
Never having watched any kind of sport before, I bought ESPN+ and 274 just to see this fight and see why so many people hail him as the LW champ. It was so amazing and it put into perspective that awful strawweight title fight. If you’re a champ, you show why you’re the champ. My first time seeing Rose fight in that didn’t do any of that for me.
[удалено]
Khabib fans realizing that no one else really cares about him anymore lol.
This boy 100% beats Khabib, who’s fought Gaethje, barely beat Poirier, barely beat Conor who was coming off a loss & journeymen
No such thing as heavy hands at 155. These “ultimate fighters” are the size of 9th graders😂😂😂😂
Crazy good indeed. But lets not forget he’s a 165lb fighter until he can beat the scale.
He could make 145
God I hope Khabib comes back just to shut the Charlie Olives fanboys up
What’s his balls taste like ?
Geathje does not have the heavies hands in 155lbs's history. Not even close.
IDGAF this man would take Khabib
He did come in over weight.
Idk about saying Justin has the heaviest hands in UFC history, but Charles is certainly becoming the GOAT LHW champ pretty fast.
He's a bitch
He was so close to getting lights shut off
