Justin Gaethje ‘loved’ seeing Conor McGregor get knocked out, talks lightweight division

ESPN MMA’s Brett Okamoto speaks with Justin Gaethje about the state of the lightweight division after UFC 257, where Dustin Poirier knocked out Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler beat Dan Hooker in his UFC debut. Gaethje explains why (3:50) he loved seeing McGregor lose and strongly disagrees that “The Notorious” deserves a rematch for the lightweight title. Gaethje also describes his timeline to return to the Octagon and discusses potential fights vs. Chandler, Nate Diaz and Charles Oliveira.
