LAS VEGAS – Charles Oliveira and Dustin Poirier brought the intensity to their final faceoff before Saturday’s UFC 269 lightweight title headliner.
After successfully making weight on Friday morning, Oliveira (31-8 MMA, 19-8 UFC) and Poirier (28-6 MMA, 20-5 UFC) attended ceremonial weigh-ins, where they had a final opportunity to lock eyes before battling for UFC gold.
Similar to the faceoff at the pre-fight press conference, the champion and the challenger did not give an inch to each other. Both sides showed confidence in their posture and a serious vibe, and only one man will leave with the 155-pound strap.
