Marian Ziolkowski answered the question of whether Mateusz Gamrot would win a fight with Justin Gaethje. The former KSW champion comments on the situation in the UFC lightweight division.
Mateusz Gamrot is currently in New Orleans, where he is accompanying Dustin Poirier before his latest fight, as well as fulfilling media duties assigned by the UFC. Among other things, the Pole appeared in a special program where he learned how to make a local gastronomic specialty together with Michael Chandler and Justin Gaethje.
Norman Parke recently stated that Mateusz Gamrot would 100% beat Justin Gaethje. Michal Tuszynski asked Marian Ziolkowski about his opinion on the subject. The former KSW champion, who had the opportunity to compete against Gamrot, spoke on the matter.
Marian Ziolkowski assesses whether Gamrot would win against Gaethje
Marian Ziolkowski addressed the words of Norman Parke. Golden Boy did not draw, as far as conclusions as the fighter from Northern Ireland, however, analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of Gaethje.
– Interesting opinion of Norman Parke. That Matthew Gamrot is 100 percent better than Justin Gaethje well that is probably an exaggeration. We can say that maybe he is better, but certainly not one hundred percent. It’s hard for me to say because Gaethje is a killer. He wrestles defensively, he wrestles well in general. The fact that with Nurmagomedov he didn’t show off wrestling is no indication of anything. With Chandler he looked good in terms of wrestling.
Marian Ziolkowski stressed that a considerable impact on the outcome of a potential clash between Gamrot and Gaethje could be due to the fact that the American has many battles in the UFC octagon and is more battered than the Pole.
– I’m not convinced that Matthew would have an easy time against a guy like Gaethje. I would rather spread it 50/50. The only thing that is certainly Matthew’s advantage is that he is not as broken as Gaethje because, however, Justin already had those strong fights behind him. Maybe Matthew’s health would be the aspect that would make the difference. Just like in the Chandler vs. Pimblett fight.
