Luke Caudillo has been with Justin Gaethje since the fighter’s PFL days. Gaethje made his UFC debut back in 2017 against Michael Johnson. Since then, Gaethje has established himself as one of the biggest names in the lightweight division.

Fans were amused when Caudillo pushed Gaethje into the bush during a playful tiff. Caudillo had a brief stint in the UFC with three fights under this belt. Although Caudillo consecutively lost in these fights, the 42-year-old was a knockout artist, with 11 of his 17 wins in his professional career ending in KOs. Since then, he has guided Gaethje to rise in the UFC, including the Interim-lightweight title win over Tony Ferguson at UFC 249.
