Justin Gaethje is expected to fight Charles Oliveira for the undisputed UFC Lightweight Championship next
Justin Gaethje is currently fresh off a win over Michael Chandler from UFC 268 in what was regarded as one of the greatest UFC fights of all time.
The last time Gaethje lost inside the octagon was back at UFC 254 when he was defeated by Khabib Nurmagomedov and failed to capture the UFC lightweight title.
However, now that 'The Highlight' has found his way back into the win column, he has the opportunity to capture the undisputed lightweight title.
As things stand, the fight between Gaethje and Oliveira is yet to be confirmed but fans can expect them to collide at some point in 2022.
