It's disrespectful how dismissive Khabib is of Oliveira

Khabib says Oliveira has no ground game. That's just insane. The man has THE MOST SUBMISSIONS IN UFC HISTORY (16). You don't do that with "no ground game". Khabib is trying too hard to pump Islam up for a Charles fight, when it's not even going to happen next. Why doesn't Khabib just shut up? Is Islam not capable of hyping up his own fights?

How about this...while Dariush and Islam fight, Khabib comes back and puts his money where his mouth is and fight Oliveira?

He's Islam's coach as well as one of the most famous fighters, why should he shut up? He got you listening after all didn't he?
Oliveira would kick Khabib's ass.
He'd have a better shot than most but he'd probably get smashed.
 
He's just trying to fluff up his boy. We all know he's being silly. He knows he's being silly. There's no need to get your nurmies rustled.

Yes, he's trying to fluff his boy up. We all agree on that. But Khabib is dead serious when he says he thinks Charles has no ground game. He's 100% serious. And that is going to motivate the hell out of Charles even more than he already is.

Because he's supposed to be this humble guy. It's unbecoming of him. Again, why isn't Khabib talking about Dariush? Dana has said plenty of times Islam is fighting Dariush next. Winner gets Charles.
 
So first Khabib will never ever lose weight to fight at LW again. But lets say he's magically back in LW shape, he will not get submitted and Olivera has nothing to stop Khabib. Dustin, Chandler, and Gaethje all tried standing with Olivera mostly, it's a different fight.
 
Khabib is jealous. He got out early because he was afraid to lose and now he’s not champ anymore. He wants everybody to worship him and still be the champ despite being retired. He can’t see somebody else getting the spotlight he feels he’s still entitled to. Things will change when Charles smashes his great value twin.

Khabib is obviously angling for his teammate and close friend to get the title shot, not sure why that's weird to some of you. As for the Dariush fight, nothing is set in stone as of now. Apparently Rogan behind the scenes is pushing for Islam vs Oliveira and you can hardly ask for a better advocate.
