Charles Oliveira: Max Holloway’s submission threat 'definitely a bluff'

Eleven years after their first meeting, Charles Oliveira and Max Holloway are set to headline UFC 326 in Las Vegas on Saturday, with the BMF title on the line. In an interview before flying from São Paulo, Oliveira said he enters Charles Oliveira vs. Max Holloway in the best condition of his career. He credited living near Chute Boxe for improved rest and recovery during UFC 326 preparations for the BMF title bout. Oliveira acknowledged Holloway's striking volume and betting-favorite status, vowed constant pressure and punching exchanges, and dismissed talk of a ground-heavy plan. He added that his team trained for all scenarios.
