Who's rooting for Charlie Olives?

Me, long live the Olive Era

I, too, am living in the Olive Garden.

Multiple fighters get a free pass to say racist shit about Brazil. And Brazil keeps cranking out amazing talent.

Hear hear .. i hope he becomes the greatest champion ufc has seen in ages. Cause I love the under dog doubly so when he keeps winning.

long live aloe vera oil

Hes not losing for a while. Hes gonna break some records

Charlie by backpack

Imagine Gaethje giving him that same low stance like he did against Khabib and Oliveira teeps him.

The backpack you can’t take off till you go to sleep.

This comment is so fucking good. Have my non existent award!

I’m a massive Gaethje fan, but I wouldn’t be upset if Olive’s wins. He’s really put in the work and seems like a real stand up guy.

really? to me he seems like more of a grappling guy

Me too, but the other way, I'm a huge charlie fan, but Justin is great too, so both deserves it

I’m in the same boat my dude

So am I, however I believe Gaethjes' time has come. He learned and improve a lot since Khabib fight.

I like both fighters. I don't like how Justin is acting like this is an easy fight for him, though.

Yeah thats annoying. As Khabib showed us Justin can't do too much against excellent grapplers, of which Charles is.

I don’t think Justin believes this fight would be easy as he said “If my stand up isn’t better than his I’m fucked” I think he’s just confident in his finishing ability

He's not really. At least in the Megan Olivi interview he seemed confident, yet aware of the danger.

I think he's tying to convince himself. .

Idk if he's acting like it's an easy fight. He gave Charles his props after his recent performances and knows the challenges he poses. He also knows Charles can quit on himself and he thinks he can test that.

charles finished chandler and gaethje didn’t. i haven’t seen anyone bring that up

You mean what literally every fighter does to sell a fight? Its always the same thing, "hes an easy fight, this guys not on my level, wait and see what I'll do to him". What do you expect him to say, hes a tough opponent that will beat me

Most obvious answer is Gaethje has a pretty clear path to victory. He won't give Oliveira the respect he deserves so Gaethje is prob also underestimating Olives rn too

I noticed that as well. I like the way Olives is talking though. He's being respectful and acknowledging Justin as a fighter but his mental game is on another level. He knows his strengths and weaknesses and he's not afraid to throw down.

Brazilian Tony all the way

Dying to see Brazilian Tony vs Gaumless Khabib

I'm rooting for a good fight. I really like both guys, so regardless of who wins if it's a scrap I'll be happy.

Either way we gettin off homie

And still! 😎

I honestly love them both wouldn’t be mad either way

same. I'm rooting for Gaethje but if Olivera wins I won't be upset as long as its a good fight

Brazil and I.

He truly is a champion of a nation! Viva Favela! Fighting!

Love both guys but I am leaning towards Olivera for this matchup, by submission.

most ppl i think. i like Gaethje but Charlie is one of the most rootable fighters in the company

Mate, almost everyone is 😂

😂

Gaethje's talking a lot of nonsense this time around. Maybe he always does and I just didn't notice.

He feels he's grown since Khabib, but idk... we'll see

Nah, the whole whitmann roster became less likeable over the last like 25 months

He's always been a bit of a dickhead lol. Nothing different this time around.

Soy🤞🏻😎👊🏼

I am! Was down in São Paulo these last few months and got some training in at Chute Boxe. Think I got CTE. Even the ammys go hard.

Charles by sub in the 3rd

I’m not even rooting for Charles I just don’t want Justin to win at all

Me cuz I really wanna see Charles vs Makhachev

Charles is such an inspirational guy, watching him develop his skills over the years has been a treat. When he first started in the UFC he was the typical Brazilian fighter-off the charts bjj and mediocre everything else. He has evolved into the real deal on every level. I hope he keeps the belt for awhile—he has truly earned it

Me, Justin gathje is cringe af

the more he talks, the more people root for Olives lmao

He has been talking a lot of shit but it’s ok… more than usual I feel. We’ll see how it ages.

Why is it that anytime a fighter shows any kind of human emotions people call them cringe 🤦‍♂️

I love Charles Oliveira! No disrespect to Justin intended, I think they are both great fighters and it could truly go either way, and I definitely believe it will be a competitive fight, but I believe victory will go to Charles.

Justin is such a boring dude outside the cage. I hope he never gets the belt.

I personally would prefer it if Charles Oliveira won his fight this Saturday.

Even though I'd be quite surprised by Charles having a long reign as champion, simply because he always takes a lot of damage, I definitely hope he stays on top for a while longer. He's just a decent dude.

Gaethje looks a bit similar to a guy that almost got me kicked out of school so he can get lost lmao let's go Oliveira

seems like majority of fans, at least on reddit

Charlie Olives is my religion

I love Gaethje and Olivera. I hate how cringe Gaethje has been since losing to Khabib.

for the real slim shady please stand up

Me 100%. Love this man!

Olivera by sub round 2 or 3

Me, definitely. He’s a good champion.

Who isn’t!?!

I have to much respect for both of them so whatever outcome happens will be well deserved. But I’m slightly feeling Charles as the victor

Right here!!!

🤚

I am. I'm argentine but since we only have one UFC good fighter, Brazilians are my guys.

Charlie Olives to put this arrogant brawler to sleep.

[удалено]

good point. when he finished a better dustin faster than khabib did, it was unreal

Why do you want his legacy undermined?

cant wait for him to shut justin up

Training for Charlie to take his back I see

Justin acting entitled in this fight so 100% going for olive

I'm rooting for him. Justin has made an ass of himself lately and Charles has more ways to finish the fight.

I for one would like charles to get contacts so he can see clearly in the octagon

They would probably get knocked out

Honestly either outcome is fine with me

The king is dead, long live the king

Always have!

Lmao

I don't want another Ali Abdelaziz client as a champion even if it's Justin

Me because Gaethje brought politics into fighting and that shit is lame regardless of whose side you’re on

I'm rooting for Charles but i think gaethje catches him with the hands

Rooting for Charles but he really needs to Be able to defend and avoid the bombs

I feel like Justin will fare just as well as Dustin did. Oliveria is just a better all around fighter. That’s not to say can’t get hit with one of Justin’s bombs and go to sleep. He just has the option to back pack Justin and put him to bed if he doesn’t like the heat.

I really like both these guys. I want to see a great fight.

I hate this fight because I like Justin and Charles. But there can only be one champion. May the best fighter win 🤝

Me✊

who isnt?

🙋‍♀️

I love olives , he’s gunna go down as the goat IMO

I am just rooting for a banger of fists.

I am. I think he is a great champion. And no hate for Justin for real.

I want them both to win

yes

Im not only rooting for charles I’m betting big on him too, 500$ baby

I just hope they both have fun.

I never bet when Olivera is in the octagon. He always gets tagged, it is only a matter if he survives the early storm, which if he does, he will come back and win. Intense stuff.

I hope olivera got this! So we can see makchev vs olivera

Me! 🙋🏽‍♂️….Love Gaethje as a fighter but sick of his shit talking.

I hope he does because I really wanna see oliveira vs makhachev(?) or oliveira vs daruish for the title

I'm just rooting for a good fight. I see Olives winning though. All the talk of Justin's "power" but his biggest clean out was James Vick, the man with the paper chin. I think Olives will pick him apart and get a finish on the ground.

I'm rooting for a good fight. Period.

I personally don't root for anyone, the best man deserves to win.

I think you need a Switzerland flair haha

Then your clearly want Charles to win .

Sage sports watcher over here

Yes! MMA is the only sport I watch that I have no investment in. When I watch basketball, it’s Celtics all the way. But MMA doesn’t have that dynamic for me. I watch to see the fights happen. I don’t care who wins. I’m there to witness the outcome, and be entertained. That’s all there is to it.

I used to like Garth but he totally whined his way to this title shot and the shit that comes out of his mouth during press week always makes me see him as a petulant child.

Who the fuck is Garth? Why does his name keep popping up?! Lol jk.

Me

Definitely going with Charles, Gaethje has shit coming out his mouth

Long live the reign of king Charles

Me, he’s the best lightweight in the world right now

Fuck yeah, Chucky all day.

While I usually like Khabib’s bluntness. He’s gotta a little loose tongued and up his britches. I would like Olives to defend 3-4 more times so he can pass Khabib and I can stop hearing from his big head ass. Great fighter but his ego has gone levels up since he retired.

Everyone except the USA

I'm a USA and I want Olives to win. Love the guy.

America has love for Charles.

American here hoping for another W for Olives

I’m Canadian and rooting for Gaethje I’ve been a fan of his fights since his fight vs Foster them leg kicks made me fall in love 🥰

[удалено]

I have a theory. All the fights he is supposed to lose, he wins. However all the fights he is supposed to win, he loses

Who? Olives haven’t lost in 4 years

🙋🏼‍♂️

Me.

Losing to khabib makes you great? Hmm

I think Olives will win, but im rooting for Justin.

I never root for Brazilians but man Charlie Olives got a fan in me. If he gets this win I believe he will be cemented as one if not the LW GOAT

Chucky O.

Everyone saying gaethje talks shit. Olives is doing it too he’s just not in English so people aren’t seeing those clips

[удалено]

Facts, I can’t stand looking at that guy. Or hearing him I hope he loses

I hope Charles gets the submission due to all the shit Justin has been saying. Plus, Justin sounds like a jealous, bitter little bitch lately and he's gonna eat his own words.

He stands no chance vs Gaethje

Not me. I listen to a lot of UFC stuff as I drive and workout, can't understand shit if the champ doesn't speak English. That sounds xenophobic lol but it's nothing personal it just diminishes my UFC media consumption enjoyment 🤷

Hard to pick a winner for this fight personally. I think both guys are great fighters although stylistically i probably got to go Oliveira.

Same. I know he’s guna get rocked but still come back and win

Anyone with a single brain cell, which means everyone except Justin Gaethje.

Me because I want to see Olives and McGregor fight for the title in Brazil.

I love Justin in the Octagon, but in interviews and anything he posts, he just seems so belligerent and arrogant

For the sake of the division, it would be nice to see Gaethje win and create some competition over the next few months, however, they are both brilliant and I’d be happy either way

Man gets more tattoos after every fight

I don't just think he'll win I want him too

!RemindMe 2 days

I’m for Justin.

I am because Gaychee be talkin' mad shiiiit

Gaethje kind of corny, gotta go with olives

no matter who wins at least we're guaranteed an interesting and action packed fight. this is gonna be good

It's hard to hate either fighter based on their fighting styles. Can't wait for this exciting night !

Gaethje makes it pretty easy to root against him when he talks about ole charlie olives.

He getting slept

I hope olives gets an eye operation soon. I think his lacking defence on feet is because he sees shit.

I admire both. I would love to see justin hold the gold. I will be just as happy is charles defends it. Both are deserving.

i was rooting for poirier just cus i knew he was the underdog

Me

I am. I am also rooting for Justin. We've been emotionally invested in both of these fighters for years and there are only losers after this one. Justin deserves to be king and can easily do this. Charles systematically worked through the world to get to the top and will never lose again.

Rooting for Charlie...Justin has become an insufferable, outspoken, meat-head.

Would be surprised if the result is anything besides Charles by sub

At this level I don't really root for anyone except Holloway or whoever's fighting Jon Jones. Id like to see Olives vs Islam, but Gaethje winning would also be fun

Charlie said he’s going to shock the world and knock him out. I would def be shocked, I wouldn’t expect it to go that way.

Gaethje has kinda been a douche in interviews. “Once a coward always a coward”, downplaying his fight with Chandler, ignoring the fact that Olivera beat Dustin and Dustin TKO’d him, and just being kinda a dick overall.

I usually don't like Brazilian fighters. A vast majority of them come off as dumb, roided out meat heads.

Charles all day!

🖐

As much as i like gaethje, im with Charles for this one.

Charles by Olivera

I'm rooting for him, is Oliveira btw

Don’t see how Justin can beat him. Charles is going to take him down and submit him.

Dubronx!

I am rooting for Charlie, but i have feeling he will be knocked out.

I just want a good fight. These guys are both monsters

Oh for sure.

My acca’s not

Hyped for both

ME

Grappling beats striking 99% of the time, so I’m going Charles

I'm rooting for both. Love em both.

I believe he’s gonna lose but always rooting for him.
