Manager of the UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhacheva Ali Abdel-Aziz announced the name of the fighter his client will fight if he wins Charles Oliveira.

“If Islam wins the next fight, he will meet with Gaethje. This is what we want, this is what the UFC wants. Justin deserves this chance. You can't go out and knock out Poirier and not get a title shot. I think Justin made a statement and earned his place,” MMA Mania quotes the manager.

Let us remind you that the rematch between Makhachev and Oliveira will headline the UFC 294 tournament, which will take place on October 21 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
