Holloway vs. Oliveira 2 – The Main Event
UFC 326's main event is a highly anticipated lightweight BMF title rematch between Max Holloway (27-8-0) and Charles Oliveira (36-11-0).
Their first encounter in August 2015 ended abruptly at 1:39 of Round 1 when Oliveira suffered a neck injury during a takedown attempt, resulting in a TKO win for Holloway.
This rematch comes after over a decade of evolution for both fighters. Holloway has become a striking machine and BMF champion, while Oliveira transformed into a former lightweight titleholder with record-setting finishes.
The fight represents unfinished business, with Holloway defending the symbolic "BMF" belt he won in 2024. It's a clash of elite striking volume versus world-class grappling, with high potential for fireworks given both fighters' aggressive styles.
Max Holloway ("Blessed") is coming off strong performances, including a decision win over Dustin Poirier. He's the current BMF holder, with legendary volume striking (UFC record for significant strikes landed), relentless pace, and iron chin. At lightweight, he's shown he can handle bigger opponents. Odds favor him around -200, reflecting his durability and output.
Charles Oliveira ("Do Bronx") is a former lightweight champ, submission wizard with opportunistic chaos, elite grappling, and finishing power. He recently submitted Mateusz Gamrot. This is a redemption shot, but Holloway's pressure could exploit his chin and defensive holes.
Most gamblers expect a war. Holloway's forward pressure and volume could overwhelm Oliveira on the feet, but if Oliveira survives early and drags it to the mat, he could end it.
Many see this as potentially the last big title-relevant fight for both (both in their 30s, legends, but past prime title runs). The fireworks potential is high. Sharps believe it could go 5 rounds or finish spectacularly.
UFC 326: Holloway vs. Oliveira II Best Bets
Holloway brings Elite volume striking, iron chin, and strong takedown defense (historically 80%+). He's in better recent form (4-1 in last 5, including decision over Poirier), and his pace could wear down Oliveira's standing.
UFC 326 Main Pick: Max Holloway
UFC 326 Fighter Prop Pick: Fight Not to Go the Distance
