Two of the most exciting lightweights in the MMA world right now produced a blockbuster of a fight. ‘The Highlight’ came out the victor from the war, but not without respecting his opponent. During the post-fight interview, he said, “I knew exactly what that motherf**ker was. He is a warrior. We’re living in the wrong times, let me tell you. Me and him should’ve been fighting to death in a f**cking colosseum. That’s what should’ve happened.”

Both men also posted on their social media, showing admiration for each other. They also clicked a picture at the hospital together after the fight.

After a performance like that, everyone expects Gaethje to fight for the title next. Charles Oliveira and Dustin Poirier will meet at UFC 269 in a UFC lightweight title fight. The winner should face ‘The Highlight’ next.

Chandler, on the other hand, is now on a two-fight losing streak. He recently called out Conor McGregor on Twitter, to which the Irishman obliged. And certainly, that is one fight that will get the fans excited.
