There is a lot of uncertainty surrounding the return of Conor McGregor. Although he was slated to fight Michael Chandler, ‘The Notorious’ called out many fighters on social media. One of them is Justin Gaethje. Meanwhile, ‘The Highlight’ recently expressed his desire to be the one who ends McGregor’s UFC career.

Justin Gaethje defeated Dustin Poirier at UFC 292 to become the UFC’s second BMF champion. Following his win, Conor McGregor shared a tweet claiming that he wants to take him on for the BMF title. Now, Gaethje has revealed his thoughts about that fight and also mentioned that he wants to put an end to the Irishman.

Justin Gaethje wants to end the UFC career of Conor McGregor

‘The Highlight’ recently made an appearance in Sydney for a ‘Q&A’ session. A fan asked him about his thoughts about Conor McGregor wanting to fight him. He replied by claiming he does want to fight the Irishman. Moreover, he also wants to end his career for good. Gaethje said, “I’d be lying if I didn’t say I dreamt of ending his career and making sure he’d never be able to step back in there.”

Furthermore, Gaethje mentioned how McGregor is choosing to fight Michael Chandler, whom he has already beaten. With this in mind, he claimed that the former double champion wanted nothing to do with him. “Chandler will now be the second guy that I beat that he chose to fight, and I think that speaks for itself. He won’t fight me, plain and simple,” said the BMF champion. Moreover, he’s even willing to put the title on the line.
