Khabib Nurmagomedov’s retirement from the UFC has left a big void in the UFC’s lightweight division – one that Charles Oliveira and Michael Chandler would like to fill on Saturday.
The division’s No. 3- and 4-ranked fighters will face off at the Toyota Center in Houston and become just the third non-interim lightweight champion since Connor McGregor took it from Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205 in 2016.
Both Oliveira (30-8-1, eight KOs) and Chandler (22-5, 10 KOs) are coming off multiple wins, setting the battle for a new era set for the Lightweight Division. Will Olivera earn the belt 11 years after the first fight under the UFC banner? Or will Chandler, fighting for only the second time since relocating from Bellator under the UFC, take it?
We can’t wait to find out. With this, here is everything you need to know to watch UFC 262, including the expected start time for the main event.
