Oliveira explained why he accepted the fight with Chandler

Former UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira shared his plan for the near future.

It was previously announced that the Brazilian will fight Michael Chandler on November 16 at UFC 309 in New York, USA.

"If I beat Conor after Chandler, do you think I guarantee myself a title shot? Because now Makhachev and Tsarukyan's title fight will be scheduled, and I'll have to wait anyway. So, why not? I'll beat Michael and then make a lot of money with Conor," Combate quoted Oliveira as saying.
