“#Charles Oliveira stops Michael Chandler at UFC 262 to win title<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

The post-Khabib Nurmagomedov era of the UFC lightweight division truly has begun as Charles Oliveira on Saturday won the title he vacated with his retirement.<\/p>\n

Oliveira (30-8, 27 finishes) rallied from major trouble in the first round to top Michael Chandler via TKO at Houston\u2019s Toyota Center in the UFC 262 pay-per-view main event, the stoppage coming at 19 seconds of the second round.<\/p>\n

\u201cI proved it to everybody. I\u2019m the lion of lions,\u201d Oliveira said via translator in the octagon.<\/p>\n

In an eventful first round, Chandler (22-5, 17 finishes) had Oliveira in early trouble on the feet to start the fight, causing Oliveira to go for a takedown and winding up stuck in a guillotine before Oliveira escaped. Oliveira quickly wound up on Chandler\u2019s back, working for a rear-naked choke even as Chandler back-dropped him in an un successful attempt to shake off Oliveira.<\/p>\n

After getting out and standing back up, Chandler\u2019s power shots put Oliveira in major trouble, but the Brazilian did just enough to avoid a finish sequence and pull Chandler into his guard for the final minute \u2014 still absorbing big punches on the ground.<\/p>\n

\u201cMichael said I couldn\u2019t take pressure,\u201d Oliveira said. \u201cThen he hit, hit, hit, and I\u2019m still here.\u201d<\/p>\n

The second frame was over practically before it began, with Oliveira stinging Chandler with a left and following up with a flurry against his rocked opponent. Referee Dan Miragliotta stepped in to stop it as Chandler ate undeterred punches against the fence.<\/p>\n

\u201cI told you I was gonna knock him out, and I came and knocked him out,\u201d Oliveira said.<\/p>\n

In the event\u2019s lightweight co-headliner, Beneil Dariush entered the periphery of the contender list at 155 pounds by outgrapp<\/a>ling Tony Ferguson en route to a decision victory.<\/p>\n

Dariush (21-4, 13 finishes), who won his seventh in a row, appeared to compromise the former interim lightweight champion Ferguson\u2019s knee with a heel hook late in the second round, when Ferguson (25-6, 20 finishes) appeared to grimace but didn\u2019t tap out before Dariush let go of the hold.<\/p>\n

The loss is Ferguson\u2019s third in a row after a 12-fight win streak.<\/p>\n

The other winners from the pay-per-view broadcast were Rogerio Bontorin (over Matt Schnell by decision), Katlyn Chookagian (over Viviane Araujo by decision) and Edson Barboza (over Bronx native Shane Burgos by second-round KO).\n <\/p><\/div>\n
