The manager of the former UFC interim champion in the lightweight division, Justin Gaethje, Ali Abdel-Aziz, stated that his client is extremely dissatisfied with not receiving a title fight.

On June 28 at UFC 317 in Las Vegas, USA, the vacant title will be contested by Ilia Topuria and Charles Oliveira.

“Justin Gaethje should fight the winner. He has won three out of his last four fights, twice saving the UFC. When he was needed, he was there. This guy has done a lot for the sport. If anyone says he doesn’t deserve a title shot...

He said: “If I do not fight for the title, I will just end my career.” Gaethje is a very principled person. He takes this very seriously,” said the manager in an interview with Submission Radio.
