Leave it to Michael Chandler to handle his most high-profile loss to date with a tremendous amount of class. Chandler (22-6 MMA, 1-1 UFC) fell short of the UFC lightweight title on Saturday when he lost to Charles Oliveira (31-8 MMA 19-8 UFC) by second-round TKO in the UFC 262 headliner at Toyota Center in Houston. It was a tough outcome for Chandler, who after years of being on the outside of the UFC, fast-tracked his way to fighting for the belt and nearly had it won. Chandler had Oliveira nearly put away in the first round, then in the opening moments of the second got caught with a left hook that set up the finish for his Brazilian foe.
