UFC 274 - Who's next for Charles Oliveira, Carla Esparza and Michael Chandler?

The drama that surrounded Charles Oliveira since he stepped on the scale on Friday disappeared in an instant with a first-round submission finish of Justin Gaethje. Both Oliveira and Gaethje exchanged some big shots that resulted in their opponents on their back; but once Gaethje hit the mat, Oliveira seized the moment and finished the fight with a rear naked choke.

Now, Oliveira is officially the No. 1 contender for the vacant UFC lightweight title, and at the moment, there isn't a perfect fit for a next foe. As for Gaethje, two losses for the title will set him back, but he remains one of the sport's most exciting fighters and will have more big moments in the spotlight in the future.
