Justin Gaethje is one of the best UFC fighters in the history of the sport. Justin Gaethje’s surprising bet on Tyron Woodley was also leaked recently.
Justin Gaethje recently spoke to ESPN MMA about his new contract and mentioned how it is not security as UFC can fire him at any time.
Justin Gaethje talks to ESPN MMA about his new contract: You like to call it security, but we know it’s not security. We can’t get out of it, they can fire us anytime. 1/3
I wish that I was able to be really proud of my accomplishment of securing my future of these 4-6 fights, but ultimately that’s not the case. I gotta go out and prove myself every fight. That’s what every single one of us has to do. 2/3
“Max is probably my favorite fighter to watch so I honestly don’t want to fight the guy ever. But I need to put myself in the title picture and if he jumps weight classes, I wasn’t sure if with Brian Ortega vs. Volkanovski being tied up with The Ultimate Fighter, I thought maybe he might want to come up to lightweight and try his hand, with Khabib being gone, at the lightweight title. That was an option at the time but didn’t work out.”
