UFC 262’s co-main event will feature another great lightweight match up as Tony Ferguson faces off against Beneil Dariush. After putting together a twelve fight win streak that lasted about six years, Ferguson is coming off the first back-to-back losses in his career. The first of those losses was in his second interim title match up, losing to Justin Gaethje by fifth round TKO. He would then go on to suffer a unanimous decision loss to Charles Oliveira.
Coming into his co-main event with Tony Ferguson, Beneil Dariush has won his last six straight fights. Over that span, he has picked up two submission wins over Frank Camacho and Drew Dober as well as two KO finishes over Drakkar Klose and Scott Holtzman. In his most recent fight, Dariush picked up a split decision win over Carlos Diego Ferreira at UFC Vegas 18. Extending his win streak to seven with a win over Ferguson would surely put Dariush in the top five of the division.
