Charles won the belt vacated by the former champion Khabib Nurmagomedov precisely with a victory over Michael chandler No. UFC 262, in May this year. The former Bellator champion, however, believes that a victory against Justin gaethje it's enough for a new opportunity to win the title.
“I think a title fight will come next. Charles Oliveira hadn't lost a round since 2017 until I made him 10-8 and almost finished him in the first round of our title fight. I take full responsibility for that defeat. I came very close to winning, but I didn't win, I have to accept defeat like a man”, analyzed Chandler in an interview with journalist Helen Yee.
Anyway, Michael chandler reinforced the focus on your next opponent and the importance of doing a good job on UFC 268.
“There are a few options. But, anyway, I need to do my job on November 6th and I think things will happen as they should”, he concluded.
While Michael chandler e Justin gaethje measure forces in UFC 268, the champion Charles of the Bronx prepares for the first defense of his belt, against Dustin poirier, UFC 269, in December.
