Michael Chandler, the UFC's ranked lightweight, revealed when he could fight the promotion's current featherweight champion Islam Makhachev.

"Islam isn't just fighting for himself, he's fighting for a whole country. He's fighting for Khabib's legacy, he's fighting for Khabib's father's legacy - his motivation is much deeper than that. I think he will defend the title against Porier, he will defend the title against Tsarukyan, and we will fight him in the first quarter of next year," the fighter said in an interview with Ariel Helwani.

Islam Makhachev will have his next fight on June 1 against Dustin Porier. As for Chandler, he will face former two-weight UFC champion Conor McGregor on June 29.
