Chael Sonnen likes to take a look at all the UFC fights and take a look at them from a betting perspective. He took a look look at the next expected lightweight title fight between Charles Oliveira vs Justin Gaethje.

There is one big factor in Charles Oliveira vs Justin Gaethje for people that like to bet on UFC title fights. Chael Sonnen pinpoints one important factor that could have a big effect on the fight.

“If you were gonna give a knock on Charles Oliveira, which you’re gonna have to look closely to do, it’s gonna be hard to critique the champion of the world – but you could,” the former UFC title challenger said on his YouTube channel. “The numbers don’t lie and Charles Oliveira gets hit a lot. He gets hit a lot more than most other champions. Charles Oliveira does not have some Chris Leben-esque chin that he’s known for. He reacts like a normal human being, which is that he falls down and he’s hurt. None of that’s a knock on Charles, it’s something we have to be aware of because Justin Gaethje is damn good at touching people.”

Justin Gaethje has a tendency to push the pace in his fights and force his opponents to match his insane pace. The UFC lightweight champion tends to start slow and will need to make sure he is ready for the crazy first round.

Chael Sonnen brings up an interesting point in that Charles Oliveira doesn't have a granite chin. It will be something to watch when the two meet in 2022.
