Justin Gaethje Remains Uncertain About Fighting Future

Justin Gaethje has stated that he has not yet decided whether he will continue his fighting career, confirming he will not return to the ring before the end of the year due to ongoing recovery from injuries.

Gaethje mentioned that he has fought twice this year but is currently dealing with a deep bone bruise in his knee and is unable to punch with his hand. He emphasized the importance of recovery and acknowledged that he has performed better than expected in recent fights.

He relies on discussions with his family and coaches to help him make this significant decision. Potential future matchups could include a rematch with Ilia Topuria or a fight against the winner of Arman Tsarukyan versus Mauricio Ruffy, but no plans will be finalized until Gaethje makes a decision about his future.
