Losing hurts, especially when it happens on the biggest stage. Charles Oliveira knows that feeling all too well after his UFC 317 title fight against Ilia Topuria.

Now, months removed from that defeat, Charles Oliveira gives an honest review of what went wrong in his title fight against Ilia Topuria. <\/p>
