UFC 286 video: Justin Gaethje, Rafael Fiziev faceoff ahead of lightweight showdown

LONDON – Justin Gaethje and Rafael Fiziev got face to face one last time at Friday’s UFC 286 ceremonial weigh-ins.

Former interim lightweight champion Gaethje (23-4 MMA, 6-4 UFC) takes on Fiziev (12-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) in the co-main event Saturday at The O2 in London. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPNews and ESPN+.

The bout is one fans and analysts are expecting to compete for Fight of the Night, given Gaethje has 10 post-fight bonuses in 10 UFC fights, and Fiziev has five in seven UFC bouts.

Watch the video below to see the final faceoff between Gaethje and Fiziev.
