“I won’t lie – I’m angry with Charles,” the American said in an interview with The Schmo. “We were supposed to have this fight at the beginning of March, and right now I had to relax and spend time with my child. Instead, I should train, recover, eat right, lose weight, and still try to spend time with the child. I will not deny – all this makes me very angry “
A few days earlier, Oliveira had announced that he would hunt his opponent for the entire fight, but Dariush believes that he will win a dominant victory in this confrontation.
“The fight plan has to be perfect. If we go through all three rounds, he won’t be able to do anything. I will win every second, every position, and I will dominate the whole fight. This is my plan. I believe I will finish it earlier, but I am focused on three rounds”
Recall that a potential lightweight contender fight between Charles Oliveira and Benil Dariush will take place on May 6 at UFC 288 in Newark.
