Former UFC champion Charles Oliveira commented on the situation regarding the uncertainty surrounding his fight scheduled to take place in Rio de Janeiro.
Idman.biz reports that the Brazilian fighter was initially supposed to face Rafael Fiziev, but the Azerbaijani athlete withdrew from the tournament due to an injury.
After that, Pole Mateusz Gamrot stated that he was ready to step in as a replacement, while Frenchman Benoît Saint-Denis refused to participate.
In this case, Oliveira lost his temper: "Everyone knows that my fight is in danger. Don't believe those who say on social networks 'I'm ready to fight'. The answer is the same: 'No, I don't have time to lose weight'. They just talk to make noise on the internet".
The Brazilian athlete harshly criticized his potential rivals: "All this doesn't look good at all. One supposedly has a stomach ache, the other has a finger. Enough with the excuses. Frankly, the situation is not pleasant".
