Did Charles Oliveira Really Lose?

A year ago, Charles Oliveira and Arman Tsarukyan faced off in the UFC Octagon. The fight was intense, with both fighters showing their skills. Oliveira, known for his submission attempts, had Tsarukyan in some deep trouble. He had Tsarukyan in a tight triangle choke and a D'arce choke, but Tsarukyan managed to escape. The crowd was on the edge of their seats as the fight went on. The judges, however, saw it differently. They gave the win to Tsarukyan by a narrow margin. This decision left many fans and fighters, including Joe Rogan, questioning the outcome. Rogan, during a podcast, argued that Oliveira should have won. He believed that the submission attempts should have counted for more points.

Oliveira himself was convinced he had won. After the fight, he said he thought he had choked Tsarukyan out. He was visibly disappointed but accepted the loss as part of the game. Since then, Oliveira has been back in the Octagon, winning against Michael Chandler. His team is now pushing for high-profile fights. The UFC has a lot of options for Oliveira. They could rematch him with Max Holloway, or he could face off against Justin Gaethje or Dustin Poirier again. These fights would bring in significant pay-per-view revenue. However, Oliveira's team is clear: they want a title shot. They believe these fights would give Oliveira the merit he needs for a title shot. The UFC world is always changing. Fighters come and go, and so do the dynamics of the game. One thing is for sure: Oliveira is ready to roll. He's hungry for a title shot and willing to take on anyone who stands in his way. The question is, will the UFC give him the chance he deserves?
