Is Conor McGregor vs. Charles Oliveira a possibility?
Both Conor McGregor and Charles Oliveira have been the former lightweight champions. While it’s been years since McGregor has held the gold, Oliveira is currently in his prime. Despite losing against Islam Makhachev in his last outing, the Brazilian fighter is still a menace at 155 lbs.
Meanwhile, Conor McGregor has already shown his interest in facing Charles Oliveira, with the Brazilian offering a similar intention. A fight against McGregor would clearly bring in a hefty payday for Charles Oliveira, and he doesn’t want to miss that. However, Conor McGregor has several more options available beforehand.

The Irish superstar can enter the welterweight title. He is undoubtedly the biggest PPV superstar in the promotion and can work his way to bag an immediate title shot. Nevertheless, Conor McGregor is still to announce anything officially. His last two fights against Dustin Poirier didn’t work well and the former champion needs to stage a commanding win on his return.
As for Charles Oliveira, he is still a top-tier lightweight prospect and seems one win away from earning another shot at the 155 lbs strap which is currently under the reign of Islam Makhachev.
