UFC 300 is looking quite good. Just have Charles, Jiri and 2 good title fights as a main card and you done the job for UFC 300 main card.

I’ll be surprise if they **** up UFC 300 with the fight announce, only way I think they can is putting Charles and Jiri on the prelim and putting boring title fight and big name fights in their place

Dana saying that the winner will get Islam, where does that leave Justin? could this mean that there's some matchmaking   in the works for that Mickey Mouse belt?

Just going to say this, Fellow Grappler tend to usually have tons of top control on Charles, Kevin Lee did before getting submitted, Beniel Dariush  before getting KO’D and Islam beat him. 

Charles is my favourite fighter, but I’m worried that Arman get tons of grappling success and Arman don’t have Darush chin or Kevin Lee submission defence, Charles need to kept it standing or take Arman down himself and not have too much faith in his bottom game, or it can be a resepe for distator for him

That's what I am talking about!! This card instantly becomes better. 

Charles will push foward like a maniac and get a KO in round 2 or possible get a body lock/ drag him to the ground for a submission. Either way I don't think this fight goes the distance.

Also on a side note, there is a weird idea among islam fans that if charles beat someone in the past or future islam automatically won against them as well because he won against charles. I legit see people saying that there is no fights for islam in lightweight because charles already cleaned it up. That's not how it works.

MMA Math doesn't work and there is always a puncher chance, Islam needs to defend the belt against diferent opponents that are in his division before going for two belts.

@duck I love Charles but this might be the perfect sink or swim instance to see if he can legit have one more crack at Islam... Benny was that fight but with Arman dropping him as well in that fashion this fight makes all the sense. I'll be pulling for Charles but all the best to Arman if he can pull it off, I just miss that genuine feel good moments after a proper Charles win

To Be Honest, Oliveira vs. Tsarukyan must be for the Interim Championship: Islam will be out for Ramadan and taking into account the reacclimatization with training and championship fight full camp that will make him available to fight in October or November. Also, in case Charles wins, Islam has started the narrative that Oliveira does not deserve another title shot because of the way he won the first fight and because Charles pulled out of the last fight in Abu Dhabi (something that probably has a little logic, but it doesn't disqualify him as a challenger either). 

Imagine a scenario where Charles wins at UFC 300 and Islam refuses to fight the legitimate #1 challenger. 

Or that Ali Abdelaziz, being the manager of both Islam and Justin, says that the only fight that takes place in October (probable Abu Dhabi Card) is Islam vs. Gaethje in the Main Event, an IC Belt gives him absolute challenger status to Tsarukyan or Oliveira.

Yes, but it's mostly a matter of management and the UFC. UFC and matchmakers are already aware that the majority of Muslim fighters (especially those who are not from the Middle East) do not want to fight in Ramadan and the period of recovering 100% of your physical condition after a period of so many Prolonged fasting is at least 4-6 weeks. 

Since Khabib was UFC champion, Dana White and the matchmakers know that he was only available to fight between the months of August to March-April (taking into account that the start date of Ramadan may vary depending on the year). The same case applies to Makhachev as Champion who even tweeted a couple of weeks ago that they would get him a fight for March or they would have to wait. 

In my Opinion Matchmakers should do Islam vs. Oliveira 2 at UFC 297 or put him against Oliveira or Gaethje for UFC 298 or UFC 299 but I understand that they want to get all the value out of the Volk-Topuria rivalry and also take advantage of O'Malley's champion hype in a city where they have already done well very well like Miami (in addition to taking advantage of the fact that Vera has been the only fighter to beat the current bantamweight champion). 

It was all a matter of Timing and I think that at least Oliveira's management should explicitly demand that the fight be an Interim Belt or Title Eliminator, that ensures that Islam's next fight is against the winner of the fight at UFC 300

There's a lot of money involved guys, Charles or Arman will be left behind, Islam will return in October at UFC Abu Dhabi, Abdelaziz will do everything to make this fight against Gaethje happen.
