Adesanya likens Gaethje vs Pimblett to Griffin vs Bonnar

    Israel Adesanya said the Justin Gaethje vs Paddy Pimblett main event at UFC 324 on Jan. 26, 2026, made a strong impression on him.

    Gaethje reportedly won a five-round war to take the interim lightweight title and become a two-time interim champion.

    Adesanya likened the night to the Griffin vs Bonnar bout that helped propel the sport years ago, suggesting UFC 324 produced a similarly high-profile moment.

    He also highlighted Pimblett's toughness despite coming up short in the headliner.

    Adesanya's comments were shared on his YouTube channel and have been reported by MMA Junkie.
