UFC 326: Max Holloway vs Charles Oliveira 2
Sunday 8 March from 11am
Coming off a unanimous decision win over Dustin Poirier at UFC 318, Hawaii’s Holloway looks to add a third straight BMF bout victory to his sterling resume, which includes a victory over his UFC 326 challenger back when the pair were aspiring featherweights.
For the former lightweight champion Oliveira, who claimed a submission win over Mateusz Gamrot last time out in Rio de Janeiro, it’s not only a chance to avenge his previous setback, but to add another title to his collection as well.
