Charles Oliveira was the most impressive fighter at UFC 326. Many, myself included, thought this fight was going to be insanely difficult for him, as are most fights with Max Holloway. Instead, Oliveira dominated and proved that he's still got a lot left in the tank. He left Max Holloway wondering what was happening to him. This was something nobody has ever done to the former featherweight champion. Now Charles Oliveira has so much lined up for him. There's Conor McGregor, Arman Tsarukyan, Benoit Saint-Denis and perhaps even an Ilia Topuria rematch.

Caio Borralho beat Reinier de Ridder to cap off the middleweight tournament that meant nothing. After his loss to Nassourdine Imavov, Caio Borralho improved by going first, going often and leading the charge against Reinier de Ridder. Reinier de Ridder was too basic in his approach and didn't have a plan B to do anything that Borralho didn't want him to do. 

Raul Rosas Jr also had a rankings berthing performance. He defeated Rob Font. But the win was more Rob Font not being good than it was Raul Rosas was bad. Font fought terribly, over extending and giving up the takedown to the wrestling-heavy Raul Rosas. Chiwiws didn't make an appearance but Raul Rosas showed he's getting better.
