If UFC president Dana White gets his way, yet another lightweight barnburner would be on the way. One of MMA’s most popular competitors, Justin Gaethje is likely to take on one of the hottest fighters in the sport, Charles Oliveira . While the fight is far from official, White indicated in a Tuesday chat with ESPN+ subscribers that this is a fight he’s keen on making. “If everything works out, it will probably be Justin Gaethje,” White told host Laura Sanko in response to a viewer question asking who would be next for Oliveira. Related Coach: Michael Chandler, Justin Gaethje 'slightly easier' for Conor McGregor than Dustin Poirier Oliveira (30-8 MMA, 18-8 UFC) is coming off the biggest victory of his career, a unanimous decision over Tony Ferguson in the co-feature bout of UFC 256.
