Alexandre Pantoja Believes Charles Oliveira Should Consider Move to 170 Pounds

Alexandre Pantoja believes Charles Olveira might be cutting too much weight.

Weighing in on Oliveira’s recent record, Pantoja said that the former lightweight champ should consider moving up to welterweight. Oliviera thinks cutting too much weight could be draining Oliveira. “The Cannibal” further noted that Oliveira’s weight cuts look taxing, as he is always surrounded by a large number of people. In contrast, Pantoja only has his coach and his children around while cutting weight.
