I don't believe for a second that the UFC or McGregor is considering Gaethje
Gaethje isn't a big enough name, and he offers too big a risk to McGregor
If you're the UFC, you're hoping Diaz beats Masvidal, so you can set up Diaz vs McGregor 3 with the winner taking on the winner of Khabib/Ferguson
I think Gaethje would definitely be considered but I agree he might be missing the "big name" part. He checks all of the other boxes, though. I think Cowboy or the Diaz/Masvidal winner are the more likely options, with Gaethje being 4th.
