The unlikely career of Justin Gaethje culminates in the unlikeliest of spots for a fight.
He’s earned this and deserves it. Give him his flowers.
And in the end, this celebration of America actually ends with the American on top.
Unbelievable.

IMO - Returning to Tennessee (or playing in 2025) wouldn't have helped Jermod McCoy.
Same questions over bone plug/degenerative knee condition would've been there next year
Best he can do is play to a 2nd contract ASAP for big NFL money. Another year at UT would've delayed that
