Former UFC lightweight champion Brazilian Charles Oliveira shared his thoughts on his fight against American Beneil Dariush, which will take place June 10 at the UFC 289 tournament.
Charles Oliveira
I've been thinking a lot about everything I've accomplished in my life. The guy who came out of the favelas into the world and was winning. I thought - have I already achieved everything I wanted, am I going to stop? No! There's still a lot of wood to burn, a lot to do. I'm going to be a UFC champion again, I'm absolutely sure of it.
Dariush, 34, had his last fight in October, 2022, at the UFC 280 tournament, beating Mateusz Gamrot by unanimous decision of the judges. He has 22 wins and four losses under his belt.
Oliveira, 33, lost to Islam Makhachev by second-round choking submission at UFC 280 last October. He has 33 wins and nine losses undওer his belt.
