[wind blowing]
[skateboard on pavement]
[grunting]
>> One-two.
That pullback right elbow.
Beautiful.
>> That was a good one.
>> Yeah, that was a really good one.
Today we're just going through the motions.
[grunting]
There's not really a whole lot of game planning
at this point because we've spent
8 weeks game planning.
So we essentially are just you know,
making sure everything's correct.
It's kind of like going over your notes
before the big test.
>> I like that one.
I like it a lot.
>> You know Katlyn studies hard.
[grunting]
>> Katlyn been at the top of the flyweight division
for her entire career.
I feel like she's definitely, like,
one of the best fighters in the division.
And Vivian's coming up.
Vivian's gonna be hungry so it'll be good.
[grunting]
>> I think Viviane is a very good striker.
She's strong.
She's fought really good opponents from
the beginning of her UFC career.
But you know, I'm a step above the other girls
that she's fought
so we'll see what she's about on Saturday.
>> Alright, I'm going to bed. Good night.
Good night!
>> Oliveira.
Can I take a picture with you?
>> Of course.
>> God bless you, man. Good luck.
>>
>> It's the old hairdryer in the shoe trick.
Conventional wisdom would say to do it hot.
But can't do it hot, they overheat.
So you just do it cool.
Get a little morning workout in.
It's just about pushing-- pushing some water out.
Then we're gonna make weight in the morning.
Let's go.
[radio playing]
I feel good, man.
This week has been really, really easy.
Maybe it's just because it's fight week.
Maybe it's just because I'm excited
I get to fight for the title.
That a dream after 21 years finally gets realized.
Got a big press conference later.
Get to size up Oliveira.
And then get ready for that last weight cut.

>> Announcer: Welcome Brazil's son,
Charles "do Bronx" Oliveira.
[cheering]
♪♪
>> What's up, Houston?
How're you guys?
Thanks for coming out today.
We appreciate it.
It's good to be back.
Thank you.
You've got it, buddy.
>> Question for Michael, in back.
Historically you've done very well
against high level Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belts.
That being said, Charles probably might be
the most dangerous in the lightweight division right now.
So how does his grappling compare
to your opponents in the past?
>> I think Charles is probably the most dangerous guy
so I think I'm gonna thwart every attack.
I think I'm gonna make him second guess himself
in every single exchange,
whether we're on the feet or on the ground,
and that's where we're going.
I'm gonna get my hand raised on Saturday night.
[cheering]
>> This is for Charles Oliveira.
>> Dana, this lastly for you.
Obviously, the reason this title is vacant
is because Khabib Nurmagomedov walked away,
one of the greatest of all time.
Do you think either one of these guys
is gonna have more to prove after--
>> He's a [bleep] bitch.
He's a [bleep]. Sorry to interrupt you.
I'm gonna dedicate this [bleep] song
called "Mask Off".
Chase a check, never chase a bitch.
That's Khabib.
[cheering]
>> I think Tony needs to recognize
that I'm in front of him.
He needs to not be worried about Khabib right now.
He needs to be worried about me.
>> Hey, homie, I already know that you went
to go help Justin Gaethje.
You're a little bitch for going out there
and helping him fight for the title.
I didn't know you did that.
I'm gonna hit you so [bleep] hard.
>> I love it, Tony.
I love it.
I want to see it.
I want to see every bit of it.
I hope you show up like you say you will.
>> I'm gonna slam you.
I'll slam you. >> I'll be there, bud.
I'll be there for everything.
>> I'm going to slam you.
>> It's Tony time! >> Next question for Beneil.
Do you think Tony is closer to the end of career
since we starting to see stuff
that we hadn't seen happened to him his whole career
happened more frequently.
>> Yeah, I mean--
>> [bleep] these youngsters.
>> I don't either, but like, obviously
we're at the latter end of our careers, but--
>> That's you, brother.
That's you. >> Thanks, man.
>> That's all quits on you, man.
I can see it in your face.
>> Okay.
That's fear right there.
No, no, no, that's fear.
>> In my opinion, it's the latter end
of his career, but it still could be
the best part of his career.
It just depends on him.
>> Still haven't even hit my prime yet.
>> We're gonna get this stuff outta here
and square these guys for some photo ops.
Thank you, Houston, we appreciate you!
>>
>> Lift you up.
[crowd chanting "Tony"]
>> Nice job, bro.
[cheering]
>> Thank you, guys.
[crowd chanting "Tony"]
[cheering]
>> [bleep], good luck to you.
