Quick read
Russian lightweight Nikita Kulchin, who served as Justin Gaethje's primary sparring partner ahead of his fight with Topuria, offered an in-depth account of life inside the Arvada, Colorado camp. Gaethje trains at altitude of roughly 1,800–1,900 meters and logs two to three hours of wrestling work per week, with Kulchin noting that Gaethje scrambles effectively and is difficult to submit. Coach Trevor Wittman — who also designs and sews his own ONX equipment line — maintained his trademark upbeat demeanor throughout camp even while dealing with a painful tooth infection. Kulchin was paid above the agreed fee, with Wittman personally writing additional checks for his work.
