"Charles is returning from Las Vegas with his whole family this Wednesday. Four days after the fight, he gave a seminar in Germany and another in the Netherlands, returned to Vegas, and flew to São Paulo yesterday. Charles' first option would be to make himself available to the UFC as a reserve for the main event fight at the UFC White House."
"Charles wants the belt, so he could take the winner of Topuria and Gaethje, or if the champion takes too long to return, make some kind of super fight that makes sense. We have a few avenues to discuss with Hunter [Campbell]."
"Every time we talk about him it turns into a soap opera, so I think it's better not to get our hopes up. Conor is a giant. He said it and he did it. Obviously, it would be a pleasure for Charles to move up to [welterweight] to have a super fight with him and show him that it would have been better if he hadn't come back, but honestly, I don't believe he'll come back."
"Wasn't it MMA? If it was supposed to be a K-1 fight, Dana could have just used K-1 rules with MMA gloves. He fought under MMA rules and not only managed to take the belt from a legend of the sport, but also etched his name in history once again."
Charles Oliveira defeated Max Holloway to win the BMF belt at UFC 326 and is actively planning his next career moves. His coach Diego Lima revealed that Oliveira has offered himself as a reserve fighter for the UFC White House main event. Oliveira's primary goal is to secure a title shot against the lightweight champion, with potential opponents including Topuria or Gaethje. A previously discussed super fight with Conor McGregor is no longer a priority, as Lima expressed skepticism about McGregor's return. Lima defended Oliveira's grappling-heavy performance against Holloway, emphasizing that Oliveira fought within MMA rules and achieved a historic victory.
