UFC president Dana White rules out top promotion star Conor McGregor in the next fight he will fight with the champion of the lightweight division Charles Olivera.

“We have yet to see how the situation will develop in the lightweight division, but first of all we have to see how the duel between Oliveira and Gaethje ends. After that, we will be able to determine who will next claim the lightweight title.

At the moment I don't have answers to these questions. In this weight category, we have many options and we can organize many fights.

Conor is out due to a serious injury, and we cannot say how long it will take for him to recover and for him to return. He needs time to become completely healthy. Only then can we say what lies ahead for him, ”Mirror quotes White.

Recall that last year McGregor suffered two defeats by technical knockout from Dustin Poirier.
