"I banged my head hard on the road. I was not at my best walking into that fight," Gaethje admitted.
But that's not the only mistake he acknowledges. Gaethje also confesses to a "fatal mistake" in his fight against Holloway, where he failed to tap into his primal competitive nature.
"It was a scary night," he recalls. "I usually can't remember much when I'm in that state, but I remember Holloway's face. It was a big mistake, and I want to rectify it."
