Justin Gaethje didn’t get to where he is by being a boring fighter. After a long run of exciting fights in World Series of Fighting where he served as their champion, he moved over to the UFC and has had three bouts so far - all of them being fight of the year contenders.
There’s one problem with that though - he has only won one of those three fights, recently losing to both Eddie Alvarez and Dustin Poirier.
While his fan-friendly style has earned him a lot of admirers, it doesn’t seem to be enough to win fights against top-tier competition in the UFC.
