UFC 262 live stream: How to watch Oliveira vs Chandler right now
Following the success of its last big pay-per-view event in Florida, UFC's Dana White is making good on his promise "to go to Texas ASAP" by holding UFC 262 in Houston and we have all the details on how you can watch Oliveira vs Chandler on TV or online.
UFC 262's main event will see the promotion crown a new lightweight champion that will replace Khabib Nurmagomedov after he retired following his final victory over Justin Gaethje at UFC 254 back in October of last year. While White wanted to have Nurmagomedov return for one more fight, he eventually accepted the fact that he wouldn't and the lightweight championship belt then became vacant
Now Charles "Do Bronx" Oliveira and Michael "Iron" Chandler will meet in the octagon at UFC 262 to determine who will be the new lightweight champion.
Oliveira is currently on an eight fight win streak after defeating Jared Gordon by total knockout back in 2019, Kevin Lee by submission last March and Tony Ferguson by decision last December. However, things didn't look so good for Oliveira just a few years ago in 2017 when he was on the verge of getting released after losing three of his last four fights. After defeating Ferguson last year, Oliveira made the decision to sit out until he got a title shot and tonight, he'll finally have his chance.
Chandler meanwhile is a new addition to the UFC as he just joined the promotion earlier this year. However, he started his MMA career with Strikeforce before joining Bellator in 2010. Chandler made his impressive UFC debut at UFC 257 back in January when he defeated Daniel Hooker by total knockout in round 1 with only two minutes and thirty seconds on the clock. With just one UFC win under his belt does Chandler have what it takes to become the promotion's next lightweight champion?
Elsewhere on the card Tony Ferguson will go up against Beneil Dariush in a lightweight bout, Katlyn Chookagian will take on Viviane Araujo in a women's flyweight bout, Shane Burgos and Edson Barboza will meet in the octagon for a featherweight bout and Matt Schnell will face off against Rogerio Bontorin in a bantamweight bout.
Whether you're rooting for Oliveira or Chandler, we'll show you exactly how to watch UFC 262 from anywhere in the world.
