Islam Makhachev has some uncertainty when it comes to Charles Oliveira.
Makhachev Has A Message For Oliveira
T-minus fourteen days from their main event clash at UFC 280, Oliveira has not yet landed in Abu Dhabi. Makhachev, who is prepping in the UAE, has maintained a close eye on ‘Do Bronx’s’ whereabouts.
Let’s just say he isn’t too happy with Oliveira being away from their meeting location.
“2 weeks before the fight, Charles and his team [are] not in Abu Dhabi yet. Should I start worry?” Makhachev wrote on Twitter.

Makhachev would also bring receipts, citing a report that said Oliveira would be in Abu Dhabi twenty days prior to the lightweight title bout. But, it looks like that is not the case.
Oliveira Responds
It wouldn’t take long for the former champ Oliveira to respond to the #4 contender. He’d send a message to Makhachev and like a movie trailer, Oliveira said he’s coming soon.
“Calm down, daddy is coming” Oliveira wrote on Instagram. “Hello Abu Dhabi.”
Charles Oliveira looks to be already en route to Abu Dhabi, posting a picture of his team flying out on Saturday. Islam Makhachev won’t have to worry after all.
The two will cross paths for the vacant lightweight title at UFC 280, which will be available to watch on pay-per-view.
