Oliveira lost his lightweight strap at UFC 280 as he was submitted in the 2nd round by Islam Makhachev. “Do Bronx” had won his 2 previous fights via submission against Justin Gaethje (May 2022) and Dustin Poirier (Dec. 2021), and his win over Gaethje was in the opening round. The Chute Boxe fighter is a tough customer, and he has faced the best of the best in the class.
