Mike Brown talks about Poirier vs. Oliveira

«I respect him a lot (Oliveira). I think he’s a fan favorite, I think people are excited to see him fight and he’s the champion. The guy has the most surrenders in UFC history and this is something special. And from where I am, I see that everyone has a lot of respect for him.

«I love the confrontation. It is exciting. His style is an elite rendition grappler, one of the best in the sport, and a fun puzzle. But I think Dustin is the best lightweight in the world, hands down.

“One of my favorite stats they came up with recently is that he was the third fastest to reach 20 wins behind Anderson Silva and Georges St-Pierre. He’s a pretty good company, and that shows the caliber of a fighter that he really is. He is one of the best that has practiced this sport«.
