Dustin Poirier picked up a TKO win in the fourth round over him in the main event of the UFC on FOX 29 show (April 14, 2018) that took place at the Gila River Arena in Glendale, Arizona. Following that fight, he set his sights set on the exit door following this loss. However, that has all changed.

That is getting paid for the work he does in the octagon. Make no mistake about it though, he did clarify that he’s not necessarily unhappy with the UFC. But rather, he just wants his money up front instead of a show and fight structure when it comes to his payout.
“It should get me a business meeting with the UFC,” Gaethje told MMAjunkie. “The way I put it on the line, I need all my money up front. And that’s how it should work for people like me.”
“They should use me as an example,” he said backstage. “If you want all your money, you fight like Justin Gaethje. It’s going to be hard for him to look himself in the mirror tomorrow,” Gaethje said. “That was my plan. I want him to look at himself in the mirror tomorrow. He’s not going to.”
