[QUOTE="TRF_Olyy, post: 1096188, member: 34990"] This is a weird one for me/is what makes MMA so fascinating IMO, in a vacuum, Oliveras stand up is way better - however much like with Khabib: IM has very solid fundamentals, which combined with your opposition being terrified of the clinch/takedown can elevate that to domination on the feet I don't think Charles will fear the takedown/clinch as traditionally that's where he's had so much success - I think that's a mistake for him though as he's never faced a wrestler like IM (and has been out wrestled numerous times in the past) I've got a feeling it'll be a bit like the Gathje fight where everyone says they've never faced a guy with such strong Muay Thai and solid grappling before...then the Dagestani just runs through them Really hope Charles wins, though [/QUOTE]
