Charles Oliveira is actually still arguably the defending champion. Because in the duel with Justin Gaethje at UFC 274 in early May, he won.
Unfortunately, Oliveira couldn’t fulfill his weight according to the rules before the game. His belt was also removed.
Islam Makhachev is highly motivated to continue the glory of his brother who is former UFC lightweight champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov.
