Athletistic/ MMA. Javier Mendez, the trainer of Russian mixed martial arts fighter Islam Makhachev, has shared his expectations for his neighborhood’s upcoming fight with Brazilian Charles Oliveira.
“First of all, Islam will bring him down – it’s just a matter of when, but he will. Charles won’t be able to stay at the helm. Islam is second only to Khabib in the ability to bring down his opponents, and Charles will be down. I think Charles will want to test our skills, and we’ll find out who’s the strongest on the pitch. We’re ready to test ourselves both in the pit and on the pitch – we don’t have no problem with that,” Mendez said.
