Charles Oliveira won the lightweight championship by stopping Michael Chandler early in the second round of their UFC 262 bout in 2021.
Oliveira came into the fight on a winning streak of eight. He’d of course go on to win the lightweight championship before losing it to current titleholder Islam Makhachev.
Chandler fought for the second time in an octagon. In his debut, he won a bonus for stopping Dan Hooker in the first round. This performance was later named ‘Debut Of The Year’ in 2021.
