Fighters Who Can Challenge Justin Gaethje For BMF Belt
One of the most obvious candidates is Conor McGregor. The Irishman is a former two-division champion and has always been known for his trash-talking and brash personality.
McGregor recently tweeted that he is the real BMF and if he can make a successful comeback to the UFC, he could potentially earn a title shot against Gaethje.
Another fighter who could challenge Gaethje is Michael Chandler. Chandler is a top-ranked lightweight fighter in the UFC and has already faced both Gaethje and Poirier in the octagon.
Although he lost to Gaethje in their previous fight, Chandler has the skills and experience to potentially give Gaethje a tough fight for the BMF title.
The idea of a trilogy fight between Gaethje and Poirier is also intriguing. Both fighters have one win over the other, and a third fight could settle the score once and for all.
After their exciting rematch in UFC 291, fans would undoubtedly be eager to see a rubber match between the two lightweight contenders.
Looking to the future, the winner of the upcoming rematch between Islam Makhachev and Charles Oliveira could also be a potential challenger for Gaethje.
The two fighters are set to face off in UFC 294, and the winner could earn a shot at the BMF title. Alternatively, if either fighter loses, they could still pose a challenge to Gaethje if they can bounce back with a string of impressive victories.
Overall, the BMF title has become a symbol of toughness and grit in the UFC, and Justin Gaethje is the latest fighter to claim the belt.
