In preparation for his title-unification bout against Ilia Topuria at UFC Freedom 250 on June 14 in Washington, Beneil Dariush has shared strategic advice for Justin Gaethje. Gaethje, the interim champion with a record of 27-5 in mixed martial arts (MMA) and 10-5 in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), is considered a significant underdog against Topuria, who boasts an undefeated record of 17-0 in MMA and 9-0 in UFC. Dariush emphasizes that Gaethje should adopt an unorthodox and aggressive approach to make the fight 'ugly' and disrupt Topuria's striking game. He noted that Gaethje has successfully turned fights into chaotic exchanges in the past, citing his ability to make fights look messy against skilled strikers like Dustin Poirier and Michael Johnson. This strategy could be crucial as Topuria has recently knocked out high-profile fighters, including current featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski and former champion Max Holloway. Gaethje's recent performance against Paddy Pimblett, where he secured a decisive victory, showcases his capability to create 'car crashes' in the octagon, a tactic Dariush believes will be essential against Topuria.
