I’d love to see the UFC leave the belt vacant for a bit, and do a Lightweight tournament.
Gaethje vs McGregor. Poirier vs Ferguson.

Maybe even open it up and include Chandler, Hooker, Olivera and someone else. Felder or Lee

Michael Chandler got merked by a 45er and Will Brooks I don't get where he comes off thinking he just jumps the line.. Oliviera and mark Madsen both beat him

They will just do Conor vs Dustin for the belt, let's not kid ourselves.

Other fights I would do to start working out contenders.

Chandler vs Oliveira

Gaethje vs Hooker

Ferguson vs Islam

Ferguson vs Islam potentially sets Islam up as the Khabib replacement, given that Ferguson's name is so intertwined with Khabib's. Also sets up a potential Conor fight with the team rivalry marketing angle. This seems like the most obvious matchup of them all and yet nobody talks about it.
