Who won the UFC 269 fight between Dustin Poirier and Charles Oliveira (11th December 2021)?
Charles Oliveira jumped into the first title defense of his career against Dustin Poirier on the back of the longest active winning streak in the UFC and the most submission wins in the history of the promotion. The Brazilian phenom has now bolstered this tally by recording a submission win over Dustin Poirier.
Following an impressive first round performance by Dustin Poirier, Charles Oliveira pulled through and fought his way to a win in the third round after dominating Poirier in the second round as well.
All the action unfolded at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, where Charles Oliveira retained his spot at the top of the UFC lightweight food chain with a submission win via a rear naked choke over his 155lbs compatriot.
What will hurt Dustin Poirier the most is perhaps the fact that he was undone by a rear naked choke in both his attempts at securing UFC lightweight gold. The first time being against Khabib Nuragomedov at UFC 242 back in September 2019.
