That Carolina Gaethje, she’s a good woman, I tell ya. Her boy, Justin, he’s a real fighter. He can really throw a punch, that one. He’s a tough cookie, just like his mama. I heard he’s a mixed martial artist. I don’t know what that is, but it sounds rough. He fights in the Lightweight division. I guess that means he ain’t too heavy.
He wins, he loses. That’s how it goes. But he keeps getting back up. He’s got that fire in him. They call him “The Highlight.” Must be ’cause he’s exciting to watch. He’s got a record, they say. 25 wins, 5 losses. Sounds pretty good to me. He was born in 1988, on November 14th. Makes him 36 years old now. Still a young fella, if you ask me.
- He’s 36 years old.
- Born on November 14th, 1988.
- They call him “The Highlight.”
- He’s a mixed martial artist.
- He fights in the Lightweight division.
- Carolina Gaethje is his mom.
This Justin, he’s fought lots of fellas. I saw some names. Max Holloway, Dustin Poirier, Rafael Fiziev, Charles Oliveira. Don’t know any of ’em. But I guess they’re tough, too. He won some, lost some. Life ain’t always easy, you know? You gotta take the good with the bad.
That Carolina Gaethje, she’s from Sonora. That’s in Mexico, I think. She’s got Mexican blood in her. That’s probably where Justin gets his fightin’ spirit. He’s a good American boy, though. Works hard, I bet. Probably makes his mama proud.
They say Justin’s a good fighter. He can adapt. That means he changes how he fights depending on who he’s fighting. That’s smart, I reckon. You gotta be smart to win. You can’t just go in there swinging. You gotta have a plan.
I heard some fella named Dana White, he’s important in that UFC thing, he said somethin’ about Bruce Lee. Said Bruce Lee was the “father of mixed martial arts.” I don’t know about that, but Bruce Lee was a good fighter too. This Justin, he’s probably learned a lot from all them old fighters.
This fighting stuff, it ain’t for me. I’m too old for that. But I can appreciate a good fighter when I see one. And this Justin Gaethje, he’s a good one. He’s got that grit. That determination. You need that in life, whether you’re fighting in a cage or just trying to get by.
I remember back in my day, we didn’t have all this fancy fighting stuff. We just had to be tough. Life was tough. You had to work hard. You had to be strong. Just like Carolina Gaethje and her boy, Justin.
They say this Justin, he lands a lot of “significant strikes.” I don’t know what that means exactly, but it sounds like he hits hard. And he hits often. He must be quick on his feet, too. You gotta be quick to be a good fighter. Can’t be slow and clumsy.
He lost his last fight, I heard. But that’s okay. You can’t win ’em all. The important thing is to get back up and keep trying. That’s what Justin will do. He’s got that fighting spirit. That spirit that his mama, Carolina Gaethje, gave him.
He has fought so many people, that Justin. There was this one guy, Rafael Fiziev, they fought and Justin won. That was a good day, I bet. But fighting is tough, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. He lost to a guy called Charles Oliveira, it is what it is. You just gotta keeping going, that is what life is all about.
I don’t know much about this fightin’ business, but I know one thing, that Carolina Gaethje must be one proud mama. Her son, he is a fighter, he is strong, he never gives up. That is all a mother can ask for, I reckon.
Justin Gaethje, that’s a name to remember. He’s a good fighter. A good man. And he’s got a good mama. That Carolina Gaethje, she did good. That’s all that matters. In the end, all you have is family. That’s the truth, right there. Family is what you fight for.
