Former UFC Lightweight Champion Charles Oliveira spoke about a possible fight with the organization's featherweight champion Alex Volkanovski.

“Of course, now I am 100 percent focused on the fight against Makhachev, who is a very strong opponent. If God bless me with an injury-free win, then my team already knows that I want to fight in the main event in Brazil in January against Volkanovski. Alex is a great fighter and I have a lot of respect for him."

Recall that on October 22, Oliveira will have to fight for the vacant title of the organization's lightweight champion with Islam Makhachev.
