Thomson advises Gaethje to take the fight with Masvidal

Retired American mixed martial artist Josh Thomson believes former interim UFC lightweight champion Justin Gaethje should support the idea Jorge Masvidal about the fight for the title of BMF ("Biggest Bastard").

Recall that at the end of July, Gaethje knocked out Dustin Poirier and took over the aforementioned symbolic belt, which Masvidal owned before his departure from the sport.

“If I were Justin, I would fight Masvidal. Gaethje will surely get his title, after which you can fight for the BMF belt with Jorge. This is a money fight, after this you can hang your gloves on a nail. Moreover, Masvidal will still have time to swim in fat.

Even if Gaethje loses in the title match, such a fight will allow him to stay afloat. These are two money battles in a row, ”BJPenn quotes Thompson.
