Top ranked UFC lightweight contenders Justin Gaethje (no. 3) and Rafael Fiziev (no. 6) will go to battle this weekend at UFC 286, a bout that will serve as the co-main event to Leon Edwards vs Kamaru Usman III.
Many fans have been excited for this match-up since before they were even scheduled to face one another, and considering Gaethje is 1-2 in his last three, both defeats coming in title fights, while Fiziev comes in on a six-fight win streak; it’s a fight Fiziev needs to propel himself further up the division.
