A week ago UFC 262 showcased four of the best lightweights the promotion has to offer. But it was Charles Oliveira who rose above them all in Houston’s Toyota Center by putting away Michael Chandler to win the vacant UFC lightweight title.
In the main event Beneil Dariush secured the biggest win of his career in dominating former interim lightweight champion, and perennial top contender, Tony Ferguson. The UFC just released their ‘The Thrill and the Agony’ video showing what happened behind the scenes immediately after Dariush vs. Ferguson and Oliveira vs. Chandler.
When the cameras caught up with Ferguson’s coach, Freddie Roach the legendary boxing coach gave a somewhat puzzling assessment at what had gone down.
