1. Justin Gaethje vs. Paul Felder
The only request Justin Gaethje had after his one-punch knockout of Edson Barboza was someone who is ranked ahead of him, but that may be harder than it sounds. Al Iaquinta is set to fight Donald Cerrone, Kevin Lee is set to Rafael dos Anjos at Welterweight, Dustin Poirier is fighting Max Holloway for the interim title, Conor McGregor is retired, Dana White refuses to give Tony Ferguson a fight until his personal issues are resolved, and Khabib Nurmagomedov is suspended.
Yeah, the UFC Lightweight division is an utter mess. So who is the most all-action fighter ranked under Gaethje? Easily Paul Felder. A main event between Gaethje and Felder would generate massive viewing numbers and hype, and the two men would fight until one of them is out cold on the floor.
