The 31-year-old American martial artist detailed his tough times during the past few weeks. As per Gordon, his “girl” had a miscarriage two weeks ago.

“This fight is for my girl, two weeks ago she had a miscarriage, we were 10 weeks long, I was in that mode, lost the baby. Three days later she got diagnosed with coronavirus right after the miscarriage. So I had to quarantine by myself,” said Jared Gordon.
