The title run of Charles Oliveira
Even though Oliveira failed to get the leg snap, he is indeed a great fighter. His title reign was nothing short of magnificent. Oliveira faced the former lightweight Bellator champion, Michael Chandler, at UFC 262. After winning his belt, he was able to emerge victorious against the top lightweights, which included Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje. However, because of missing weight, Oliveira was not able to retain his belt after the Gaethje clash. This was followed by a terrible loss against Islam Makhachev.
