Thought this was interesting and hadn’t seen it posted here before. Does he try the same thing for oliveira or has he learnt his lesson?

Cobb had his back easy. Charles had Dustins back he will easily get Justins if Justin doesnt KO him early.
 
Who the hell gives their back to Khabib?

On purpose? Who was Justin kidding?

Loads of people, its one of the most common ways of trying to escape the ground in modern MMA.

Really I think part of the reason fighters like Khabib have taken MMA by storm so much is that they have exposed how much the sport depends on these tactics, fighters have basically stopped learning how to figth from their backs or time sweeps in favour of giving up their backs to "just stand up". It worked in an enviroment were high quality sub grappling has become very rare but against someone who can really exploit it well suddenly it becomes a big weakness.

Its why so many fighters looked fucking clueless against Khabib on the ground, "just stand up" was all they knew how to do and when that didnt work they had no plan B.

Gaethje has a good TDD

For Oliveira to submit Gaethje he needs to rocked Gaethje, or make Gaethje feared for his standup

The thing is Gaethje has a good recovery too like Olives

Gaethje is far more dangerous than Chandler
 
justin shouldn't even be fighting for a title
Who else is there RIGHT NOW? The fight with Dariush and Islam hasn’t yet decided who is rightfully next. And the fuckery involving Conor isn’t possible yet. If Oliveira wants to fight in the next cpl of months. Justin is the only viable contender that makes sense.

Do you have a serious rebuttle?

I totally agree with that synopsis in general. But anyone who thought at the point Khabib fought Gaethje, that giving your back to Khabib was a viable option, is a moron. Everyone knew Khabib was a monster at that point.

Khabib toyed with Justin on the ground. It was actually embarrassing. The instant he took his back, you knew it was over.
 
He won't have to worry about giving his back to Oliveira, because he will ko him before it even goes to the mat. Charles luck is about to run out and he's gonna get exposed.

Luck? Really? Alright then

I know it sounds like a joke but in reality Oliveira can't see opponent in a perfect 100% vision. Hence he can't dodge most shots/strikes really well

Although it's not luck but it's more of a gut and determination to win,

With Gaethje Oliveira need a better gameplan than 'just stand in your ground and strike'
