After the win, Topuria was face-to-face with potential next challenger Paddy Pimblett. And Alexandre Pantoja continued his dominant men's flyweight title run with a submission win over Kai Kara-France in the co-main event. We've seen it too many times -- Oliveira is the underdog but pulls off some magic in a lightweight title fight. The up-and-comer just picked up his eighth UFC win and beat the top flyweight contender on three weeks' notice. He'll vie for a UFC title, and whether he wins or not, he'll leave his mark on the sport.
