Meanwhile, the current UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira is 31-8 (1 NC) in his professional MMA career. He currently sits at the tenth position in the UFC men’s pound-for-pound rankings. ‘Do Bronx’ also holds the record for having the most finishes in the UFC history (17).

Both fighters have faced several elite fighters in their career. Win or lose, Poirier and Oliveira both get better after every fight. As a result, it won’t be an effortless task for the ‘Diamond’ to dethrone the champ. 

However, Oliveira hasn’t yet been tested in the championship rounds. ‘Do Bronx’ has never gone past three rounds in his entire professional MMA career. Meanwhile, Poirier excels in a long-drawn battle. If the fight goes past three rounds, the ‘Diamond’ has a better chance of winning the title.
