The former two-weight world champion’s recent performances in the octagon have been unfortunate, as he faced back-to-back stoppage defeats by Poirier in 2021. The first fight ended in a devastating knockout, and in the second encounter, he unfortunately suffered a broken leg at the end of the first round.

Gaethje was declared the new BMF champion.
