That spinning hook kick to Ridell and Ridell's fighting ghosts after wards is brilliant!
I feel that Rafael Fiziev is going to win the fight and this is coming from a Justin Gaethje fan .The blueprint has been there to defeat Justin Gaethje. Body shots,counter Justin low kicks with straight punches while Justin is on one leg,check his kicks .

Fiziev is for real, and from a humble and difficult background. Even though I'm a Coloradan, AND share a first name with Gaethje , I'm rooting for Fiziev, for SURE. He's had a more difficult life, and it shows (with much respect to Justin's own upbringing/struggle, for sure). Fiziev was significantly more iron-wrought in life. More similar to Khamzat.

Fizev is the better striker, has more tools at his disposal and at this point in his career, more hunger. If JG gets locked into technical kickboxing match, he's getting koed or losing to decision... UNLESS he catches fizev napping
