Sarurday’s pay-per-view event at Madison Square Garden in New York City saw former UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira get back in the win column as he defeated Michael Chandler in a thrilling rematch. Right before that lightweight clash, top prospect Bo Nickal extended his unbeaten run by outpointing Paul Craig in a showing that was criticized by many. These were just two of the many highlights from the card.
