Doubt Charles Oliveira at your own peril.
The former UFC lightweight champion showed once again why he’s one of the most exciting fighters to ever compete in the octagon, and why those who bet against him are always in danger of eating crow.
Oliveira recovered from danger early to stop Beneil Dariush at 4:10 of Round 1 in UFC 289’s co-headliner. The ground-and-pound finish halted an eight-fight winning streak for Dariush and sent Vancouver’s Rogers Arena into a frenzy.
Here’s what fighters had to say about Oliveira’s big win on Saturday night.
Congrats Charles.

Gutted for Dariush. Should’ve had a title shot already. But congrats on a HUGE statement from Oliveira! He is a bonafide finisher! #UFC289
