The UFC Lightweight title belt is up for grabs tonight as former Bellator Lightweight World Champion Michael Chandler faces off against Charles Oliveira at UFC 262.

The lightweight title has been vacant since former champ Khabib Nurmagomedov surprised fans by announcing his retirement immediately after defending his title at UFC 254 last October. Nurmagomedov cited health concerns and wanting to spend more time with family as the reasoning behind his early retirement.

Now, it’s Chandler vs. Oliveira in the ring to see who will be crowned as the new UFC champion.

Khabib Nurmagomedov’s undefeated record will be on the line at UFC 254 this Saturday, as the Russian Mma champ takes on American Justin Gaethje for the UFC lightweight championship title. Nurmagomedov (a.k.a. “The Eagle”) looks to add another victory to his perfect 28-0 record as he defends his title for the third time against interim titleholder Justin Gaethje, whose 22-2 record puts him right in the mix against Khabib.

Set in 1990, the film follows Mickey Kelley (Flanery), one of the first American black belts in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, who gets pulled away from everything he loves and into an unsanctioned Mma tournament, where his dreams of providing for his family come to a halt with a split-second decision.

Gaethje says nah, doubt it. "[Conor's] a warrior. I know that it would intrigue him for sure. But, I also think his mind would be like, 'no, thank you.'" "He can't take my leg kicks. If I wanted to wrestle him, I could wrestle him all day.

Conor McGregor and 26 other dudes have stepped in the cage with Khabib ... and exactly zero have walked away with anything besides an L ... but he's never fought Justin Gaethje.

So, logic dictates Mj steer wayyyyy clear of Khabib, right? Wrong. Johnson tells TMZ Sports he's dead serious...

Tyron Woodley says Ufc star Khabib Nurmagomedov scares the living hell outta him ... and he ain't too happy his TMZ co-host's trying to play matchmaker with 'em. On this week's episode of "The Hollywood Beatdown" -- the Ufc welterweight champ reveals his very real fear of Khabib ... who absolutely mauled Edson Barboza at Ufc 219.  So once Tyron found out we asked Khabib about a potential throw-down, his reaction was pretty much what you'd expect. "Why...

[[tmz:video id="0_9ajbrggn"]] Ufc superstar Khabib Nurmagomedov says he's not a Diva like Conor McGregor -- and would fight the Irish superstar for Zero dollars ... just to whoop his ass.  Khabib joined the guys on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs weeknights on FS1) ... and went off on McGregor after Conor trashed his homeland, Dagestan, on Twitter.  Backstory -- after Khabib smashed Edson Barboza at Ufc 219, McGregor tweeted at Khabib -- "That Dagestani was dog sh*t the...
