Conor McGregor, Dustin Poirier both favored over Charles Oliveira in potential UFC title tilts

Charles Oliveira captured the UFC’s vacant lightweight belt this past Saturday at UFC 262 by knocking out Michael Chandler in the second round. On July 10th at UFC 264, there will be a likely title eliminator for “Do Bronx’s” new crown in the form of former champ-champ, Conor McGregor, in a trilogy bout with former interim champion, Dustin Poirier. Betting odds have surfaced for possible matchups involving Oliviera against “The Notorious,” as well as for one against “The Diamond.”

The odds had Oliveira winning the vacant strap, but they don’t have him holding onto it for very long.
