Charles Oliveira with a row of finishes against Chandler, Poirier, and Gaethje is being considered the modern lightweight GOAT. Manny fans have also put him above Khabib Nurmagomedov in the list owing to his explosive fighting style and his tenured MMA career. 

On the other hand, Islam Makhachev is often compared to Khabib Nurmagomedov and many believe both the fighters are on the same level.

Daniel Cormier has even claimed that Makhachev is a better grappler than Nurmagomedov. Simply put, both the fighters are in a position where a victory over the other will possibly determine them as the lightweight GOAT.
