Gaethje questions doubters after interim title win
Justin Gaethje captured the interim lightweight title at UFC 324 on January 24, defeating Paddy Pimblett by unanimous decision in Las Vegas.
He reportedly entered the bout as an underdog on several sportsbooks and has publicly questioned why he continues to be underestimated.
The 37-year-old's career mark moved to 27-5 overall, and he is said to be 9-2 when listed as the underdog.
The interim belt reportedly positions him for a unification fight with Ilia Topuria later in 2026, a matchup that is already showing steep early odds.
