Las Vegas hosts UFC 326 this weekend at T-Mobile Arena, where Max Holloway defends the BMF title against Charles Oliveira in the main event on March 7.
Main Event Breakdown
Holloway secured his last BMF defense with a victory over Dustin Poirier at UFC 318 in July 2025. Oliveira returns after submitting Mateusz Gamrot in October 2025 on a UFC Fight Night card.
The fighters first clashed on August 23, 2015. Oliveira suffered a neck injury early, forcing officials to stop the bout and award Holloway the win. At that time, Holloway’s record stood at 14-3; it now reflects 27-8. Oliveira’s mark was 20-5-1 NC then and stands at 36-11-1 NC today.
Ilia Topuria’s Bold Prediction
Ilia Topuria, who knocked out Holloway in the third round at UFC 308 to claim the featherweight title and later stopped Oliveira in the first round for the vacant lightweight belt eight months after, offers his take during a UFC break.
Topuria favors Holloway. “Oh, I love Charles because of his personality. He’s such an amazing human being. But I think Max is taking it. I think so. Yeah. But don’t count Charles out. He’s dangerous at any moment of the fight. He can just submit you at any time.”
