After a first start in the UFC complicated by his eagerness not to defend himself from the punches and kicks he receives, Justin Gaethje is now at a great position given that he has a two-game winning streak. He has changed his style a little, still being very aggressive, but has improved his defense. Even in his last two bouts, he did not need much, as he triumphed in the first round in both.
