LINCOLN, Neb. – When it comes to fighting, fans know what Justin Gaethje wants to do. Gaethje wants to bang. He wants to go Rock’Em Sock’Em. He’s out for blood, always going for the knockout.
But that isn’t necessarily the case with James Vick. And because of that, Gaethje feels a certain way about his UFC Fight Night 135 opponent.
“No, I don’t admire anything about his fighting style,” Gaethje said Thursday during media day. “Point fighter, constantly going backwards. But he’s ranked No. 10 in the UFC, so he’s definitely … it’s going to be a big challenge for me. I got to go out there, get a W, be a little more patient than normal, pick my shots.
“He doesn’t like to get hit. He gets hit going backwards, and that’s the worst way to get hit. So, when I do touch him, he’s going to feel it. He’s going to not like it.”
UFC Fight Night 135 takes place Saturday at Pinnacle Bank Arena. Gaethje vs. Vick headlines the FS1-televised main card following prelims on FS2 and UFC Fight Pass.
You can watch Gaethje’s full media scrum in the video above.
