It was a statement win that reinforced his durability and elite striking pedigree.<\/p>\n<p>Standing opposite him is one of the most decorated finishers the sport has ever seen. Charles Oliveira holds the UFC records for most finishes and most submissions, along with a stack of performance bonuses.<\/p>\n<p>This is a fitting headliner for UFC 326 in the fight capital of the world.<\/p>\n<p>Holloway has only been knocked out once in 35 professional bouts, while both fighters bring a combined 83 pro fights into this matchup.
