White told when the fight between Makhachev and Oliveira could take place

UFC CEO Dana White answered a question about a possible rematch between the promotion's lightweight champion at a press conference after UFC 295 Islam Makhachev and former owner of the belt Charles Oliveira.

“Makhachev’s rematch with Oliveira? At the moment I can’t say anything. Maybe in the summer,” White said.

Let us remember that in October last year, Makhachev defeated Oliveira by choke in the second round. At the UFC 294 show, the fighters were supposed to have a rematch, but the Brazilian withdrew due to a cut.
