UFC 262: Oliveira vs. Chandler fight card

Check out the fight card and bout order for UFC 262: Oliveira vs. Chandler in Houston, Texas.

The UFC is back in Texas for the first time since before the pandemic. They’ll be at Toyota Center in Houston on Saturday, May 15th with a packed house expected. In the main event, Charles Oliveira and Michael Chandler vie for the lightweight title vacated by the retired Khabib Nurmagomedov. The co-main pits former interim lightweight champ Tony Ferguson against Beneil Dariush.

Unfortunately we lost both Nate Diaz vs. Leon Edwards and Edmen Shahbazyan vs. Jack Hermansson from this main card, but it’s still nevertheless a quality lineup. I’m personally most looking forward to Edson Barboza vs. Shane Burgos on the main card, plus Rogerio Bontorin vs. Matt Schnell on the prelims. Katlyn Chookagian vs. Viviane Araujo is the other main card matchup and that’s a biggie for women’s flyweight.

There will be a fight bumped from the prelims to the main card due to the recent postponements, but as of this writing we don’t know what has been moved up. IN the meantime here’s what UFC 262 looks like:
