Oliveira: "I will be the one to fight Makhachev in my next fight"

Former UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira has no doubt that if he defeats Arman Tsarukyan, he will get the opportunity to face current division leader Islam Makhachev once again.

"Dana White has already said that my candidacy will be next in line. We talk about a lot of things with the UFC, but I repeat - it's me who will have to fight Islam in the next fight. Right now I'm focused on beating Arman. But after that I will be the next challenger for the title," - quotes the Brazilian MMA Mania.

Recall, the fight Oliveira - Tsarukyan will be held on April 13 at the anniversary tournament UFC 300 in Las Vegas, USA.
