UFC 262 - Chandler vs Oliveira - Preview
The UFC is heading to Houston this Saturday, May 8th for UFC 262. The PPV will have the most competitive division crown a new king after Khabib Nurmagomedov retired for good. Battling for the gold is Charles "Do Bronx" Oliveira and former Bellator champion, "Iron" Michael Chandler.
You're not going to want to miss this one. Oliveira is tied for most UFC finishes as well as most submission victories. Chandler is fresh off a KO win in his UFC debut over Dan Hooker. This is going to be fireworks for sure. Did I mention that there will be a crowd for this. Yeah, place will be going nuts.
Co main event is going to be a great lead up as well. Tony Ferguson is taking on Beneil Dariush. Both guys are always in exciting fights and this is a great piece of matchmaking right there.
