Quick read
Russian lightweight Nikita Kulshin, Justin Gaethje's primary sparring partner ahead of his bout with Ilia Topuria, has provided an inside account of the camp in Arvada, Colorado. Kulshin described Gaethje as a precise striker who keeps his wrestling work to roughly two or three hours per week, and noted that head coach Trevor Wittman maintains a relentlessly positive demeanor through the entire camp. He also revealed that Gaethje trained high kicks specifically, though without heavy emphasis, and that Topuria has publicly said he continues to work on defending that weapon following previous knockdowns.
