Justin Gaethje is open about the sad reality of the sacrifices that some hunters have to make to get to the pinnacle of MMA.
On Saturday evening, on UFC 313, 'The Human Highlight Reel' will return to action in an explosive Rematch with Rafael Fiziev, in the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.
The match could not only serve as an opportunity for Gaethje to become a member of an exclusive $ 1 million club with Donald Cerrone, but also his last chance to push itself to a new shot on the lightweight title.
And it is honest to say that he is willing to put everything at stake to get the job done.

“I live alone. Sometimes I am 'hello, hello', to ensure that my voice still works. I remove all distractions.
“I would like to have a family, I would like to get married, but it didn't happen. At the moment I manage everything; This is the only thing that counts. When I'm done, I will enjoy every piece of it. “
