Lightweight Championship: Charles Oliveira vs. Dustin Poirier
The current UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveria has been in scintillating form after defeating Michael Chandler at UFC 262.

The expected fight between Charles Oliveria and Dustin Poirier would be the main card event of the UFC 269. Both fighters would be competing for their title and honor, as one stands as the champion and the other is leading the rank. Both these powerhouses and their sponsors are up for the fierce duel, which is most likely to decide an ultimate champion of the lightweight category. It’s been 6 months since UFC lightweight title has not changed hands, so it’s most likely that Poirier would be eying the golden opportunity to win the fight and get his name on the record books.

The Title Fight would be going live on every UFC streaming channel operating via pay online streams to buy watch time.
Bantamweight- Amanda Nunes vs. Julianna Pena
It was recently announced that Amanda Nunes would be up against Julianna Pena at the event of UFC 269 for a title defense match under the Bantamweight category. The title match was initially scheduled at the event of UFC 265, which had to be canceled as Nunes withdrew from the event due to the Covid-19 virus. In December 2019, at the main event of UFC 245, Nunes defeated Germaine de Randamie via a unanimous decision and was declared the new Bantamweight champion. Since then, Nunes hasn’t faced any competitor for her title defense. This would be the first time that Nunes would be up against Julianna Pena, who also aims to get her name on the record books. Julianna Pena stood #5 on the MMA ranking and earned this chance after winning over Sara McMann at the event of UFC 257.
