Justin Gaethje won the interim lightweight title via unanimous decision over Paddy Pimblett at UFC 324, claiming the top spot in the lightweight rankings and bumping Arman Tsarukyan to #2, with Charles Oliveira and Max Holloway dropping to #3 and #4. Gaethje is now positioned as the next challenger for undisputed champion Ilia Topuria upon his return. This reshapes the lightweight title picture amid Topuria's absence. Meanwhile, Holloway defends his BMF title against Oliveira at UFC 326. Gaethje's second interim reign underscores his resilience in a stacked division.
