This past weekend, Charles Oliveira defeated Dustin Poirier to defend his UFC lightweight title. After the fight, Conor McGregor took to Twitter to express that he wants another go at the title, seemingly challenging Oliveira almost immediately. McGregor, who has lost two consecutive matches and is currently recovering from a broken leg he sustained in his fight against Poirier, is evidently keen on making his way back to the ring. Oliveira’s match against Poirier has allowed him to defend his lightweight title and will now likely move to face the top contender Justin Gaethje in the new year. McGregor is slated to come back to the ring by the end of 2022, however, the timeline has not yet been confirmed. Should this be the case, Oliveira still has plenty of time to rest and train before po...

Charles Oliveira has defeated Dustin Poirier, solidifying his place as the undisputed UFC lightweight champion. The matchup started off at a feverish pace as the fighters engaged in an intense back and forth. Poirier’s power was evident early on as he scored a knockdown on Oliveira towards the end of the first round. Oliveira responded with a takedown in Round 2 and spent the entire round raining elbows from top position. The third round saw Oliviera take Poirier’s back, ending the fight with a rear-naked choke. Despite Oliveira coming in as the champion, Poirier entered UFC269 as the betting favorite, riding on the momentum of his last victory against Conor McGregor. Now that Khabib Nurmagomedov has retired from the UFC, the Lightweight division has been in search of a new king, and Olive...

LaVar Ball is famously known for speaking his mind, maintaining that he believes he could take Michael Jordan, who many consider the greatest of all time, in a 1v1 basketball match.
