VANCOUVER, British Columbia – Dana White would like to see Charles Oliveira rematch UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev . Oliveira (34-9 MMA, 22-9 UFC) finished Beneil Dariush (22-5-1 MMA, 16-5-1 UFC) by Round 1 TKO in this past Saturday’s UFC 289 co-main event at Rogers Arena. Although Makhachev (24-1 MMA, 13-1 UFC) recently scored a dominant submission of Oliveira this past October at UFC 280, Oliveira’s performance was impressive enough for White to consider him one of the frontrunners in the title race. “He looked like a world-beater tonight, and I’m excited for him and Islam to fight again,” White told MMA Junkie and other reporters at a post-fight news conference
