UFC star Justin Gaethje gave his opponent Rafael Fiziev the beat down of his life at UFC 286 when both the lightweights clashed. The O2 Arena on March 18 bore witness to the fighting prowess of ‘The Highlight’ as he racked a splendid victory. However, the Saturday night fight also evoked concerned reactions from the fans as the brutalized face of ‘Ataman’ sprouted blood. While the heated encounter gave fans a memorable match, the declaration of the same previously raised some eyebrows. For some, the Safford native fighting a lower-ranked fighter didn’t add up, especially since his last fight was a title shot. Finally, the American fighter raised curtains for his accepting a fight against the Azerbaijani fighter.
Notably, the 34-year-old in the post-fight press conference discussed the recently concluded UFC PPV and also gave a sad update on his career. In addition, towards the last minutes of the interview, he mentioned how he beat the former Muay Thai fighter in his own game. Further, the 24-4 record holder mentioned a tweet from the last year triggered a chain of events that culminated in their fight in London.
