Charles Oliveira takes BMF title from Max Holloway at UFC 326, nearly 11 years after first meeting

Charles Oliveira finally avenged a loss that has stuck with him mentally by unanimously outpointing Max Holloway on Saturday night to win the BMF title
MARCH 8 • Associated Press
Decisions Reinier de Ridder Borralho defeated Reinier de Ridder via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at UFC 326 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
Impact Borralho picked up the win here and that's all that matters following his woeful performance against Nassourdine Imavov in September, but to suggest this was some dominant and complete effort would be false. Yes, Caio landed the more damaging blows the entire fight, but he essentially took Round 2 off entirely (despite all three judges inexplicably scoring it for him) and his cardio appeared poor. This could have been an entirely different result had de Ridder pushed the pace just a bit more. As is, Borralho is back on track at 185 pounds and once again in line for another notable fight his next time out.

MARCH 6 • SPORTSKEEDA.COM
Set for UFC 326 co-main Borralho will face Reinier de Ridder in a middleweight matchup in the co-main event of UFC 326 on March 7 in Las Vegas.
Impact Both Borralho and his opponent are coming off devastating losses that derailed what would have been a clear path to a title shot at 185 pounds, so this fight is essentially to remain in the title picture. While Borralho holds an advantage in striking volume and is more of a knockout threat, he'll be giving up three inches in both height and reach to de Ridder. Most of de Ridder's career success has been via grappling, but Borralho's takedown defense is solid, and he's never been submitted in his MMA career. De Ridder suffered his third career knockout last October at the hands of Brendan Allen, so Borralho will likely look to stay out of prolonged grappling exchanges and use his striking for a statement victory.

De Ridder on tap Borralho is scheduled to fight fellow middleweight Reinier de Ridder at UFC 326 in Las Vegas on March 7, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
Impact In 2026, Borralho will look to redeem himself from a bad 2025. During his lone fight last year, he was dominated by Nassourdine Imavov in Paris, sliding down to the middle of the pack in the UFC's middleweight rankings. At No. 7, de Ridder is just below him at No. 8.

No-shows Paris main event Borralho lost to Nassourdine Imavov via unanimous decision (45-50, 46-49, 46-49) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Paris.
Impact Looking at a potential title shot with a victory, Borralho put forth his worst UFC performance by a country mile. He simply was never able to get in rhythm against a quality opponent in Imavov. Borralho is a very technical fighter and is at his best when things are clean and pretty. When they get ugly like they did in this fight, it typically doesn't go well for him. The fact Caio failed on all five of his takedown attempts didn't help matters. The total strikes were 89 a piece, but the more notable blows certainly came from the Imavov side. The 32-year-old had won each of his first seven UFC fights, in addition to a pair of bouts on Dana White's Contender Series. It's Borralho's first loss of any kind since his second professional bout back in July 2015.
