Despite laying out plans for his return to the lightweight ranks in the coming future, former interim titleholder, Justin Gaethje has confirmed he will call time on his storied career if he suffers a similar knockout loss to his UFC 300 defeat against Max Holloway.

Gaethje, a former interim lightweight gold holder and symbolic BMF championship winner, has been out of action since he suffered a staggering fifth round buzzer-beating knockout defeat to Hawaiian veteran, Holloway back in April.

And plotting his way back to action ahead of an appearance at Noche UFC over the course of last weekend, the Arizona native welcomed the chance to return against the surging Kiwi, Dan Hooker, as well as settling his differences in a trilogy rubber fight with Dustin Poirier.

“Yeah, Dan Hooker — I have a list, I think Hooker, (Charles) Oliveira, (Dustin) Poirier and (Alexander) Volkanovski is a list of four people that I think any of those would do for me what I need to do to get back in the (title) picture,” Justin Gaethje told assembled media during a scrum ahead of Noche UFC.

Furthermore, weighing up his immediate fighting future in mixed martial arts, perennial lightweight contender, Gaethje revealed that if he ever felled as devastatingly as his knockout loss to Holloway back at UFC 300, he would most definitely hang up his gloves from combat sports.

I’m not out of (the title race),” Justin Gaethje explained. “I’m not out of it right now, I’m not out of it tomorrow. This sport is so crazy, like I said Poirier lost to me and then got to fight for the belt. I do not believe I have reached that point, whether I’m the champion or not, who knows? It’s so hard to put a time if I ever go to sleep like I just did — I’m done.”

Donald Trump Shooting: Justin Gaethje Responds to ‘Evil’ Criticism of Trump’s Golf Course Incident with Short Tweet

Justin Gaethje is not amused.

On Sunday, former U.S. President Donald Trump was the subject of another apparent assassination attempt while at his golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida. Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, was arrested as a suspect and charged with firearms offenses.

The incident comes two months removed from an attempt on the ex-POTUS’ life while he was speaking at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Trump was grazed in the ear before being rushed off the stage by members of the Secret Service.

Needless to say, news of Trump’s second attempted assassination in as many months sparked a variety of responses from social media users. One that seems to be getting a lot of attention came from Rachel Vindman, the wife of former Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman, who was the chief witness in the 2019 impeachment proceedings of Trump.

Vindman made light of the second attempt on Trump’s life, writing in a since-deleted post: “No ears were harmed. Carry on with your Sunday afternoon.”

Justin Gaethje Reacts to rachel vindman’s ‘evil’ comment

Unsurprisingly, those who lean towards the right side of the political spectrum were quick to condemn Vindman’s comments, including former BMF titleholder Justin Gaethje, who didn’t hold back in his response.

“Evil b*tch here,” Gaethje posted. “Wow.”

It’s been five months since fight fans saw Gaethje suffer a buzzer-beating knockout loss against Max Holloway at UFC 300, surrendering his BMF title in the process. Since then, Gaethje has compiled a list of four potential opponents for his return.

“I think Dustin Poirier, I beat him, he fought for a belt (and) there’s always those certain set of circumstances that can happen which will lead to (a title shot),” Gaethje told MMA Junkie and other reporters during a recent media scrum. “I think this fight with (Makhachev) and Tsarukyan is the next fight, then there’s kind of another opportunity for somebody like how Dustin Poirier stepped in. There’s not a clear contender.

“I have to fight and win then I’m right back in there. I have a list. I think (Dan) Hooker, (Charles) Oliveira, Poirier and (Alexander) Volkanovski is a list of four people that I think any of those would do for me what I need to do to get back in the picture.”

Justin Gaethje Makes Strong Pick For Ilia Topuria vs. Max Holloway At UFC 308: ‘In My Mind, I Can’t See Him Losing’

At UFC 300, Justin Gaethje was on the receiving end of Max Holloway’s iconic last-second KO. The former UFC featherweight champion broke Gaethje’s nose towards the end of the first and was winning comfortably on the scorecards, making the moment all the more special. The loss to Holloway might be a tough pill to swallow […]

The loss to Holloway might be a tough pill to swallow for “The Highlight”. After losing to Charles Oliveira in a title fight, he bounced back by beating Rafael Fiziev via decision and then knocking out Dustin Poirier with a head kick. A win over Holloway could’ve set him up for a title shot against Islam Makhachev.

Holloway will soon be back in action, while Gaethje has yet to spar again. Here’s how the former interim UFC lightweight champion thinks the UFC 308 main event would go…

Justin Gaethje Honestly Admits Why He’s Backing Max Holloway To Beat Ilia Topuria At UFC 308

Gaethje talked about his UFC return with some reporters from outlets like MMA Junkie at Top Golf in Las Vegas recently. After mentioning the four ideal opponents, he discussed the UFC 308 main event between Ilia Topuria and Holloway.

“The Highlight” expects the challenger to emerge victorious but was heavily impressed by Topuria’s performance against Volkanovski. He appreciated the current UFC featherweight kingpin for being patient and executing his game plan perfectly at UFC 298.

Gaethje admitted that he would like Holloway to win also because the latter knocked him out cold at UFC 300. “Blessed” overwhelmed his opponent with patient yet clear striking and a similar strategy might help him reclaim gold at UFC 308.

Here’s what the former UFC BMF title holder said when asked to pick between Topuria and Holloway:

“I mean, I really hope that Max wins. I mean, Ilia was so impressive with Volkanovski, his patience. He fought an amazing fight. Um, I don’t know. I expected something different than I saw from Max, I was very impressed. And so, in my mind, I can’t see him losing but that’s cause I just got put to sleep by him.”

Justin Gaethje weighs up fights with Dan Hooker, Charles Oliviera in UFC return: ‘I have a list’

Sidelined since his stunning knockout defeat at UFC 300 back in April, former interim lightweight champion and symbolic BMF titleholder, Justin Gaethje has confirmed he has a list of opponents on his mind for a return — including Dan Hooker and a rematch with ex-champion, Charles Oliveira.

Gaethje, the current number three ranked divisional contender, has been out of action since he featured on the main card of UFC 300 earlier this year, suffering a hellacious buzzer-beating fifth round knockout loss against former undisputed featherweight champion, Max Holloway in the pair’s symbolic BMF title fight.

And yet to receive booking in the time since his stunning stoppage loss, Gaethje — who managed to snatch the BMF crown back in July of last year with a similarly devastating high-kick knockout win over Dustin Poirier in the pair’s rematch, has welcomed a trilogy rubber match with the Lafayette veteran, as well as a slew of other foes.

And despite admitting recently how he knows his time remaining in the sport is somewhat limited, the Arizona fan-favorite insists he is not definitively out of the title picture at 155lbs.
