Kelvin Gastelum Critiques Humorous UFC Face-Off Ahead of Sacramento Event

Kelvin Gastelum has voiced his criticism regarding a comical face-off between Jackson McVey and Wes Schultz ahead of their middleweight bout at UFC Sacramento. The event is set to feature Anthony Hernandez facing Gregory Rodrigues later in the day.

The face-off drew attention as McVey and Schultz humorously replicated a famous Spider-Man meme during their ceremonial weigh-ins. This matchup is a rematch from their 2020 amateur fight, where Schultz won by submission in just 41 seconds.

While some fans appreciated the lightheartedness, Gastelum reflected on the past seriousness of such moments in MMA, stating that the sport should not be treated as a joke. His comments received mixed reactions from fans on social media.
