    Rafael basically learned the same thing as Gaethje. He said he learned not to follow the fans and the screaming. Gaethje learned to not get caught up in the lights and the noise of the crowd. Both learning to control their emotions and pace themselves. A calm Fiziev about to be a cold one

    Definitely one of my favorite fighters in the UFC. First fight I watched was on ESPN+ where he’s fighting his gym buddy he trained with in Muay Thai gym. Crazy spinning wheel kick. Then the way he stuffed RDAs take downs then knocked him out. Funny post conferences with the call outs and a true gentleman

    Both were tested with the top 5. Gamrot, looked a lot more out of his depth against Dariush, but Rafael just looked a little inexperienced against Gaethje. Can't wait to see what their experiences have turned these guys into.
