Justin Gaethje wasted no time making a callout of Al Iaquinta following Saturday’s UFC on FOX 31 main event. Iaquinta (14-4-1 MMA, 9-3 UFC) defeated Kevin Lee (17-4 MMA, 10-4 UFC) by unanimous decision in their lightweight rematch, which took place at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee and aired on FOX following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass. Shortly thereafter, Gaethje (19-2 MMA, 2-2 UFC) took to social media and asked for a fight against Iaquinta. Gaethje was supposed to fight Iaquinta at UFC Fight Night 135 in August, but Iaquinta withdrew from the fight because he was unhappy with his UFC contract status . He’s on better terms now, though, and Gaethje wants the fight to happen (via Twitter ): Whether Iaquinta and the UFC will oblige to Gaethje’s request remains to be seen. “Raging” talked about matchups with Conor McGregor and champ Khabib Nurmagomedov post-fight, but with the career of both fighters on hold following the infamous UFC 229 brawl, the lightweight division is murky at best
