Is Oliveira the chinniest LW?

moosaev said:
The problem is Oliveira got knocked down in every single round against those guys. They all have a decent punch but cmon, clearly it’s more about Olives chin than their power.

Some of those knockdowns looked like Charles playing possum trying to get them to go to the ground

Ok but Oliveira fans can’t have it both ways, I can’t count how many times I’ve seen them say Olives beat Gaethje and Poirier quicker than Khabib. By the same token Khabib was never in danger and Oliveira almost got finished by both. Speaks to the levels between them.

Dude, what is this thread even about? You asked if oliveira was the chinniest at LW. I gave an argument as to why he's not.

Sample size of 1. You even admit that yourself. You can't tell if his chin is bad because of one punch. Wait until it becomes a pattern of getting finished before you claim he has the worst chin.

Right, but you are just nitpicking. What happened to Islam was not the point of my post.
 
Hey, mouthbreather, can you please get double yellows so you can't make any more shitty threads?

You're embarrassing yourself. Now, normally I would say "who cares, it's just an online forum", but man, this just really goes to show your weak mental state IRL.

Seek professional help.

By the same token, if he didn’t have such deadly submissions maybe he gets finished after taking those shots, it still speaks to the lack of durability of his chin if he needs a rest after getting clipped.

idk man. gaethje hit him with a shot that I'm sure he could have stand up but he wanted to take a 5-10 second breather and recompose. if his chin was really that bad, he probably would have went to sleep. I think he took gaethje's shots way better than gaethje's previous opponents outside of khabib who took them the better the most. I didn't see oliveira chicken dancing when he took a punch from chandler, I saw that with gaethje several times.
 
Oliveira is quite bad to be honest. He just keeps winning over and over because his opponents are even worse.
Am a fan.
 
Chandler got KOd vs Oliveira, knocked down and rocked numerous times vs Gaethje and Tony Ferguson.

I’m not sure if this is Chandler having a bad chin, or just being a dumb fighter. The guy shoots his wad early and then refuses to defend intelligently when he’s tired.

He got knocked down and rocked numerous times in the first round vs Ferguson. He also got rocked numerous times vs Gaethje in the first round. He got KOd by Oliveira in the first few seconds of the second round and he didn’t look tired walking back to his stool after the first. The guy is chinny.

Yet hasn't lost a fight in 5 years and is the best LW in the world.

I really don't see the point in this thread other than to talk shit about the champ.

It says a lot that Oliveira has remarkable recovery as he's able to comeback & win everytime. These things take a toll in the long run for his health, I hope it doesn't turn out bad down the road
