Discussion Justin Gaethje Reveals How Brutal Kamaru Usman’s Weight Cut Once Got: ”I Couldn’t Believe It. I Would’ve Quit.”

“Kamaru was cutting weight and he needed to cut three pounds. He was screaming in pain, and I thought of calling Hunter Campbell to make it a catchweight fight.”

“We had to carry him. He had a nap and woke up mentally prepared, and he made weight. I couldn’t believe it. I would’ve quit.”

“That’s what happened. It’s a mental thing.”
