UFC 274: Oliveira vs. Gaethje

Drama filled UFC 274 not due to pullouts, but because of the scales. Charles Oliveira came in 0.5 lbs over the Lightweight limit and was stripped of his title, despite insisting he weighed 155 lbs backstage. As a result, the title was only winnable for Justin Gaethje. Michael Chandler also faced Tony Ferguson in a must-win fight for both men at that stage of their careers. Namajunas vs. Esparza also took place on the card, a bout widely regarded as the worst title fight in UFC history.
