Justin Gaethje accepted the challenge of Rafael Fiziev to fight in the UFC

The promotion immediately set a date for the fight.

Correspondence of two top UFC lightweights in social networks Justin Geydzhi and Rafael Fiziev ended with the signing of a contract for the fight.

Initially, Fiziev wrote on his page that he wanted to fight Geydzhi and was even preparing for the fight.

The American promptly responded, writing, in turn, that he was already ready to go against Rafael even now. Although the athlete refused this option earlier.

The promotion immediately reacted, putting the fight between Gaethje and Fiziev on the card of the UFC 286 tournament, which will be held in London on March 18.

Despite the fact that Geydzhi is the third number in the lightweight division, and Fiziev is the sixth, experts consider Rafael to be a small favorite.
