if you look at the picture, Oliveria appears significantly taller than his compatriot. This has created curiosity among fans to know about the differences in their height. The height difference between the pair is minimal.

According to CelebHeights, Neymar is 5 feet 8 inches tall, just two inches shorter than Charles Oliveira, who stands at 5 feet 10 inches.

Looking at the photo, this might sound confusing. However, it is important to note that the picture is giving the impression of a major height difference since Neymar is leaning towards the UFC champion while posing for the shot.

While fans have criticized McGregor for calling for a title shot, it appears that Charles Oliveira is open to taking on the Irish megastar in his comeback fight.

In an interview with Sherdog, the reigning lightweight champion replied to McGregor's challenge. Here's what Oliveira said:

"May would be a wonderful date. Conor challenged me asking a date, and tweeted Ireland vs. Brazil 2. Not only him, but also myself and all the world wants to see that fight. So let’s make it happen. I´m waiting for him in May. It may be in welterweight, lightweight or middleweight, with my title on the line or not. Just choose and I'll be ready."
