felt that at age 35 he is entering the top of his game. “Do Bronx” revealed to Sherdog this week that his training camp went as smoothly as one ever has, while discussing what he expects on Nov. 16 in Madison Square Garden.
The two lightweight greats first tangled at UFC 262 in 2021, and Chandler came out of the gate hot by hurting Oliveira more than once and hitting a crucial takedown early. While Oliveira eventually turned the tables and knocked Chandler out, the Brazilian is razor-focused on winning this second encounter at all costs.
If the UFC’s all-time leader in submissions prevails at UFC 309, he will likely be presented with a litany of options for his next engagement. Previously competing at 145 pounds, the former lightweight has flirted with the idea of shifting gears to 170 pounds for fresh matchups or a possible “superfight” against a top name in that division. Above all, “Do Bronx” wants to work his way back to the championship picture, no matter the twists and turns it will take.
