Dustin Poirier on potential rematch between Charles Oliveira and Islam Makhachev
Charles Oliveira and Islam Makhachev were set for a highly anticipated rematch at UFC 294 back in October this year. However, Makhachev ended up facing Alexander Volkanovski as Oliveira was forced to withdraw from the fight because of an injury.
Since then, Oliveira is seemingly still next in line for a title shot. Ahead of a potential rematch, Dustin Poirier gave his take during an interview with MMA Junkie. Suggesting that Oliveira has what it takes to beat Makhachev, 'The Diamond' said:
"If Oliveira's mindset is in it, if he's the same guy who fought me, who fought Chandler, I think he can win that fight. I don't think he wanted to fight [against Islam Makhachev] in that title fight. It looked like he didn't want to be there, he quit on himself, it looked like. That's my opinion. I know personally he has the skills to beat the best guys in the world... It's just if he gets his mindset locked in, ready to go, I think he can beat him."
