UFC 262: Oliveira vs. Chandler Preview and Predictions
May 11, 2021
With Khabib Nurmagomedov retiring after defending his title for a third time when he defeated Justin Gaethje at UFC 254, the lightweight belt now sits vacant. This weekend, at UFC 262, that belt will find a new home.
Submission ace Charles Oliveira takes on former Bellator kingpin Michael Chandler in the main event to determine a new champion. Oliveira enters the fight as the UFC’s all-time leader in submission victories with 14, and he is also riding an eight-fight winning streak. Chandler earned this title opportunity with an impressive Octagon debut in which he scored a first-round knockout victory over Dan Hooker.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Lightweight knockout artists Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier this weekend (Sat., Jan. 23, 2021) at UFC 257 inside Ethiad Arena on “Fight Island” in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
Just a few days passed the one year anniversary of his most recent win, McGregor makes his return. Not only is the Irishman returning to competition, but he’s back at Lightweight, the division of perhaps his all-time best performance opposite Eddie Alvarez. With Khabib Nurmagomedov largely out of the picture, there’s never been a better time for a second run at the 155-pound strap.
