Justin Gaethje: I believe Nick Newell deserves a UFC shot

[Wild]

With Nick Newell coming out of retirement and sensationally winning by neck crank last week, there has been growing support for Newell to get a UFC contract.

One such example is UFC lightweight contender Justin Gaethje, the only man to best Newell in the cage, beating him by second-round TKO almost four years ago under the World Series of Fighting banner. On Wednesday, Gaethje tweeted his thoughts on whether Newell belongs in the UFC.

I say give the guy a shot. It could turn into a great story for all involved.

He gave gaethje a better fight than most too..Newell should get a shot. If cm fkn punk and James toney have its not even a question.. those 2 are not even in the same galaxy as Newell...but we know how the politics go
