Charles Oliveira is a great prospect/ The key word is prospect. The 21-year-old was facing a guy with seven UFC wins and a well-rounded game.
Oliveira took Miller lightly on the ground and paid for it. The New Jersey-native, working from top control, transitioned to an ankle lock. Oliveira didn’t do much to extricate himself, and Miller cranked back with a kneebar. Oliveira tapped almost immediately to giving Miller the win at 1:59 of the first round.
