Ali Abdelaziz’s reaction to Conor McGregor’s KO loss is no surprise considering the history the two have. Furthermore, Justin Gaethje is a fighter under Ali’s massive stable of talented athletes, and he’ll be looking to secure that fight. There’s plenty of substance to the lightweight division, and a large number of matches can certainly be drawn up.
Is Justin Gaethje next in line to fight Conor McGregor?
The lightweight division has truly been tossed on its head with the emergence of Poirier as the main man once again. Several potential plans for a Khabib vs McGregor rematch are all but out of the window considering the defeat. Moreover, the manner in which he lost means he’ll have a long way back to the title.

There are several fighters including Charles Oliveira and Michael Chandler, who are now the major players in the division. However, this leaves the biggest star in the sport without a viable dance partner. Per Ali Abdelaziz’s suggestion, a possible match could indeed be Justin Gaethje vs Conor McGregor.
Both men are coming off clear-cut losses that have sent them to the back of the line at lightweight. Matching them up would make sense from a divisional ranking point of view. Additionally, both men prefer to stand and trade, making it a classic spectacle to behold within the striking range.

It all comes down to whether McGregor feels taking up a fight with Gaethje gets him back in line. However, coming off a violent KO loss will certainly limit his options exponentially.
