Media Charles Oliveira says he will never watch his loss to Islam Makhachev

I asked my friend who was a pro boxer,who hadnt lost yet,if he would watch footage of himself losing if he ever lost. He got mad right away. He was like "Man I cant even think about that shit"
 
If he doesn’t watch it, it never happened.

Difference is your friend hadn't lost yet sir.
Charles has lost a few.
 
it's the wrong mindset to have IMO. When you lose, either in a fight or at anything in life, you should be studying it ASAP to see what went wrong, what you could've done better, what you can take from it moving forward to make yourself better. Not burying your head in the sand and pretending it didn't happen. The best competitors learn a lot from their losses (i.e. GSP after 1st Serra fight)
 
Maybe he won't try to clinch with Islam and actually throw some punches...

Really low fight IQ from Charles, was very disappointing
 
Charles should stay away from Islam, it’s a terrible matchup.
 
He’s making 2 mistakes in my estimation.
Choosing to not analyze his loss objectively and learn from it.
Overlooking Dariush, taking the win for granted and anticipating a rematch with Islam.
But only Charles knows Charles. Maybe this is what he needs to do to move forward and get back to winning.
