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.

Now his recent injury derailed him further. However, it would be interesting to see how he makes a come back. What do you think?
