UFC 274: Oliveira vs Gaethje LIVE stream, TV channel, UK start time, fight card, prediction, latest odds today

Charles Oliveira faces Justin Gaethje in the main event at UFC 274 tonight.

For the first time in the promotion’s history, a champion lost their title on weigh-in day after Oliveira was stripped of the lightweight belt on Friday having failed to make the 155-pound limit.

Gaethje can still win the title should he emerge victorious inside the octagon, although the crown would remain vacant should Oliveira triumph.

The co-main event sees Rose Namajunas battle Carla Esparza for the women’s strawweight title, while Michael Chandler and Tony Ferguson also square off in an eagerly-anticipated lightweight clash.

UFC 274 prediction

Gaethje will rarely have a better chance to take advantage of Oliveira, who couldn’t even make weight when afforded more time.

It’s hard to suggest all is well in the Oliveira camp and, as a result, Gaethje to beat him sounds the most likely outcome.
