Dominance MMA CEO Ali Abdelaziz, one of the most notable managers in the sport, gives an update on several high-profile clients, including new BMF titleholder Justin Gaethje and his future – which seems to hold a meeting with the winner of Islam Makhachev vs. Charles Oliveira but could potentially see a showdown with Conor McGregor, as well. Abdelaziz predicts Makhachev will make handy work of Oliveira and then face Gaethje early next year.

Abdelaziz also discusses Makhachev’s future plans as they relate to both Alexander Volkanovski and Leon Edwards, pitches the idea of Kamaru Usman vs. Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson, recounts speaking at the Association of Boxing Commissions annual convention and his responsibilities as a manager, discusses the PFL’s plans following their controversial decision to remove Natan Schulte from the 2023 Playoffs, outlines the status of former PFL champ Kayla Harrison, and more.
