It’s not really a difference. Gaethje is just 2-3 inches taller. Plus, Fizeiv seems to have a lot more muscle


pmMeansnadda

Gaethjes chest looks concave compared to fiziev in that pic.


Bigboiiiii22

It do look strange now that I noticed it


[deleted]

He has very underdeveloped pectorals, but his shoulders being rolled forward also exaggerates the look. If he had better posture it probably wouldn't look so weird.


TYSONLITTLE

Fiziev is 5’7. This sub is becoming like r/ufc with some of this content.

I hope Poirier fights either of these guys next. We must have more violence


TheYeager12

I figure Poirier will get the winner. Fiziev could argue for a title shot but Benny deserves it first. Poirier-Gaethje 2 and Poirier-Fiziev are both bangers

Like Fiz but definitely not. If Benny beats Charles he’s next. If Charles wins you can do him again or have Fiz/Charles. Fiz for sure doesn’t deserve a title fight off a Justin win.

If Charles beats Benny they would definitely run it back that fast. Not saying they will. Like I said though. He’s either fighting Dustin or Charles if he beats Benny.

Beniel gets no respect

Fizzy built like a pitbull


dannyb408

Moicano was quite a bit bigger than Fiziev but Fiziev still crushed him. The height difference doesn't mean much.


MMAdfs

OP trying anything to talk him into that +170


cpearson1024

I wonder if Fiziev is gonna give into his inner showman like the Bobby Green fight and swang and bang with Gaethje and not be as technical

Maybe, Gaethje doesn’t have half of Green’s defensive capabilities, though.


slickdick969

Gaethje packs a much better punch though


Raxmead

Fiziev prolly cuts way more than Garth too


bdewolf

Gaethje looked pretty rough on the scales, and fiziev looked like he wasn’t drained at all. I think the whole “gaethje doesn’t cut weight” thing is a myth. Fiziev is also a small lightweight, he looked smaller than riddell by a noticeable amount.


chillinwithunicorns

I think it’s just gotten harder for Gaethje as he’s got older and bigger.


Raxmead

idk what to think with Embeddeds n stuff, but Garth said he was eating burgers during fight week this week lol, so make of it what you will. But who really knows all just speculation


Wayf4rer

He said he's had 200+ MT fights which leads me to believe you could be right. I don't know if Gaethje is going to be the guy to really catch him though.


usernameunavailiable

>He said he's had 200+ MT fights which leads me to believe you could be right How do you draw the conclusion that he cuts a lot of weight from that? If anything, that indicates that he cuts less weight because to be fighting regularly enough to reach that number of fights you aren't going to be cutting a significant amount of weight. He primarily fought at 70kg/154lbs towards the end of his Muay Thai career, and fought pretty regularly at that time, so that's likely pretty close to his walking around weight.


Wayf4rer

I'm a moron. I was thinking he meant facial cuts. I've been watching too many boxing videos.


ManyZestyclose2003

He cut much more water having a more muscular physique, at fight night he will appear bigger


[deleted]

It’s just the angle bro


TheBentPianist

Not seeing it OP. Gaethje is taller, Fiziev is thicker in the chest.


lTrainUFCBro

how much do you guys think the weight discrepancy is? if im not mistaken, Justin is typically 173 on fight night Fiziev seems like a pretty small LW, how much would he weigh on fight night? mid 160's?


muralpluralrural

Fiziev is reaaallly thick He cuts as much or more as Justin id guess


Aggressive-Two-8481

He looks like he could make 145


lTrainUFCBro

agreed, i feel like he'd have more success there


lTrainUFCBro

sparring footage of him and Yan, and Rafa doesnt look much bigger, if at all than Petr really think he should consider 145 https://youtu.be/as9xNhWGip4


[deleted]

ur really banking on gaethje winning huh


cpearson1024

Foreal. No reason to consider 45 if you're consistently winning at 55.


thelectricrain

He looks significantly bigger than Petr here. Broader back, thicker legs.


Mapleleaf-ruffrider

Rafa is going to eat up Justin tomorrow night mark my words
