Clay Guida has some choice words for his opponent Charles Oliveira as well as his previously scheduled opponent Bobby Green ahead of UFC 225.

Clay “The Carpenter” Guida is one of the most likable fighters on the UFC roster. A veteran of the sport and longtime member of the UFC, Guida has a presence and a personality that allows him to say what he wants whenever he wants. Guida spoke exclusively with FanSided on Tuesday afternoon about his opponent for Saturday’s UFC 225 Charles Oliveira, as well as his originally scheduled opponent Bobby Green and fighting in his hometown of Chicago.

“Not surprised at all about that,” said Guida. “Bobby Green is not what you would call a true warrior. He’ll fall off at the drop of a dime. Luckily Charles Oliveira took this fight on short notice to step in for Bobby Green, brown, black, yellow, or whatever you want to call him. He is a coward, so thanks to Charles for me not having an opponent in my hometown.”

With the last minute, replacement can come issues as well. Guida was asked what he thinks about the possibility of Olivera missing weight as many fighters have been doing in the recent months.

“In the UFC yeah we are pushing 30 fights, a different opponent same outcome I’m getting my hand raised no matter what,” Guida explained. “(If Oliveira misses weight) I’ll make him pay, I’ll literally take his head and bounce it off the canvas like a basketball. I imagine he is usually a 145-er, so 155 he shouldn’t have a problem making weight.

“If he misses weight I’ll just embarrass him even more. He’s coming into the lion’s den, he’s coming to Chicago, my hometown. He’s gonna pay dearly whether he makes weight or not.”

Guida will be fighting in his hometown for the first time since January 2013. On June 9th he will make his return on one of the years most anticipated events.

“This whole card in Chicago is going to be awesome,” Guida said. “To be able to fight at the United Center, the house that Jordan built, the Madhouse on Madison, it’s just going to be electric.”
