He won the vacant belt with a KO win over Michael Chandler and now it appears his next fight will be against Justin Gaethje. However, he says he would be open to fighting McGregor next as he knows it would be a massive money fight for him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf I had the chance [in the past] to fight for the belt or fight Conor, everybody knows I\u2019d fight for the belt,\u201d Oliveira said to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmafighting.com\/2021\/12\/15\/22836517\/charles-oliveira-conor-mcgregor-jump-the-line-ufc-justin-gaethje-dustin-poirier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MMAFighting<\/a>. \u201cThat already happened, I\u2019m the champion now.

We\u2019ll continue building our legacy and making history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Although Conor McGregor is on a two-fight losing streak, he still remains the biggest name in the sport. With that, Charles Oliveira knows the money he would earn from the fight would be massive, which is why it entices him so much.<\/p>\n<p id=\"VBmmPd\">&#8220;Of course, no one\u2019s a fool. \u2018No, I\u2019ll fight someone else because of the belt, leave Conor alone\u2019 \u2014 who\u2019s going to do that? Only a fool,\u201d Oliveira said. If I had the opportunity to fight Conor, I would definitely fight Conor. The belt is mine regardless. The division has to get by and wait a little bit. There\u2019s nothing else to do. We have to think about our families, our children, think about what we can do down the line.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whether or not McGregor will actually get the next title shot is to be seen. He still is rehabbing his broken leg but he has said he will be walking right back into a title shot and Oliveira seems willing to let that happen.<\/p>\n<p>Do you think we see Charles Oliveira vs. Conor McGregor next?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Charles Oliveira is okay with Conor McGregor getting the next lightweight title shot.
