Charles Oliveira Beats Michael Chandler Via TKO to Win Title at UFC 262

Charles Oliveira has become the new UFC lightweight champion with a second-round knockout win over Michael Chandler in the main event of UFC 262 from the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.

The fast and furious title fight was a story of extremes before the new champion was crowned in a wild turn of events.

The win is a mountaintop moment for Do Bronx. He has fought in the UFC for more than a decade but just earned his first shot at a UFC title. He debuted as a 20-year-old with a win over Darren Elkins at UFC on Versus 2.
