Paul Felder very respectfully told Justin Gaethje that if no one ranked ahead of him is willing, he would gladly take that fight.

Gaethje's response: You don’t want that to happen to you #UFCPhiladelphia

I would not recommend this sport to my worst enemy, but I was born and I was bred to do this. And I will do it till the wheels fall off.

Justin Gaethje vs. Tony Ferguson has to happen at some point in the future. I don't care when. I don't care how.
