Charles Oliveira and Dustin Poirier face off at the UFC 269 pre-fight press conference
Oliveira will make his first lightweight title defense against Poirier, who seeks a second chance at the belt. Poirier is coming off of back-to-back wins over Conor McGregor this year.
Oliveira earned the vacant lightweight title over Michael Chandler after Khabib Nurmagomedov announced his retirement from MMA. It was widely expected that Poirier would get the immediate shot, but he opted for a trilogy with McGregor instead at UFC 264.
Both men have gone through their fair share of ups and downs during their respective UFC tenures. Oliveira and Poirier fell short of a title shot at featherweight before later finding success at 155 pounds.
The winner of Oliveira vs. Poirier will surely reign in a new era at lightweight and will cement themselves as one of the top fighters in the world at UFC 269.
UFC 269 takes place on Saturday, Dec. 11, 2021, live from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV. Follow along with FanSided MMA, who is on-site, for all your news and highlights.
