LONDON – Justin Gaethje is unhappy not only with how the main event of UFC 286 was judged, but also with the way it was called on the broadcast. The former UFC interim lightweight champion thought his friend and teammate Kamaru Usman did enough to beat British champion Leon Edwards in their trilogy bout for the welterweight title Saturday at The O2 in London. Despite disagreeing with the majority decision for Edwards, Gaethje (24-4 MMA, 7-4 UFC) said he understands his bias – but also thinks the same of Michael Bisping, who called the fights alongside Jon Anik and Daniel Cormier. “I thought (Usman) won the fight,” Gaethje told reporters at his UFC 286 post-fight news conference. “But I’m probably as biased as the judges. (I’m) certainly not as biased as Michael Bisping.
