Michael Chandler and Charles Oliveira had Madison Square Garden on its feet after a wild fifth and final round.
Oliveira dominated Chandler for the first four rounds but ‘Iron Mike’ came back firing down the closing stretch.
After surviving numerous submission attempts from Oliveira, Chandler summoned up the strength to rock the Brazilian with a furious barrage.
But as Oliveira backed up against the cage, Chandler got greedy with his work and threw a wild left hook that sailed past his opponent and caused him to crash to the canvas.
Sensing his moment, Oliveira attempted to scramble but Chandler ended up on top.
From there, the American MMA star rained down hammer fists and elbows before welcoming Oliveira back to his feet.
After weathering another storm, Oliveira managed to plant Chandler on the canvas again and took his back.
