Charles Oliveira and Max Holloway are gearing up for a highly-anticipated rematch, according to the Brazilian fighter himself. The two lightweight contenders are eager to settle their score, with Oliveira emphasising Holloway's calibre and the fan interest in the fight.

However, Holloway has indicated that he might not fight again in 2025, which could potentially delay the rematch. Oliveira's next fight is scheduled for October 12, 2025, against Rafael Fiziev, meaning any potential rematch would happen after that bout.

The rematch between Oliveira and Holloway holds significant weight in the UFC landscape. Both fighters are highly accomplished, with Oliveira being a former UFC lightweight champion, and Holloway holding the BMF belt. This anticipated event promises to be a notable chapter in their careers.

In the meantime, Oliveira is focused on his upcoming fight against Fiziev. The fight, which is not a title fight, will take place in the near future. Oliveira's last fight was a loss to Islam Makhachev in a lightweight title fight. Despite the setback, Oliveira remains confident about the rematch with Holloway.

Holloway, on the other hand, recently defeated Dustin Poirier by unanimous decision. However, an injury has caused a delay in his UFC schedule, with the Hawaiian announcing that he will be out for the rest of the year. This injury will also affect his participation in upcoming UFC events.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the rematch, Oliveira remains undeterred. He is open to the idea of a rematch with Holloway at a later date, reaffirming his commitment to making the highly-anticipated fight happen.

As both fighters continue to make their mark in the UFC, the prospect of their rematch looms large. With their UFC Hall of Fame prospects already secured, fans can look forward to an exciting chapter in their careers when they step into the Octagon once again.
