BMF belt holder and top UFC lightweight American Justin Gaethje reacted to the former double champion of the promotion, Irishman Conor McGregor's challenge.
Justin Gaethje
I think heās turned me down six times. Usually, you have to lose to fight him. So Iām not sure whatās going on. ā¦ I fight in MMA. I like to fight big fights. It sounds pretty exciting to me. Iām not going to fight someone on steroids. Iāve never taken steroids in my life and I donāt want to fight someone who is cheating. I probably shouldnāt even say that if I want the fight, but itās the truth.
