Charles Oliveira believes Chandler is a harmful check for Pinblett
In an interview with Oddspedia, former UFC light-weight title holder Charles Oliveira shared his perception that Michael Chandler may get Paddy Pimblett into bother within the first two rounds.
“Michael Chandler is a really aggressive and explosive man. I solely admire him and he has the energy in his hand.
“On the opposite aspect, there’s a younger man who believes in himself, strikes very nicely and has superb jiu-jitsu.
“Within the first two rounds, Chandler has the chance to knock him out due to an explosion. However because the battle progresses to the third spherical, I feel it is tough for Chandler as a result of Paddy is younger and gifted.”
Oliveira is aware of one or two issues about mixing with Chandler. The 2 collided in November 2024 at UFC 309 inside Madison Sq. Backyard in New York Metropolis. Oliveira gained the battle, however he nearly stopped within the remaining spherical.
If Pinblett can go Chandler, he’ll win the highest 10 UFC light-weight rating spot for the primary time in his profession. Coming into UFC 314, Pimblett took twelfth place and Chandler sat in seventh place.
“The Baddy” has been undefeated below the UFC banner up so far. He is been on a straight eight wins. Pimblett has not suffered a professional MMA loss below Cage Warriors Banner since September 2018.
