Lynch is a veteran voice in the MMA media. He has a good rapport within the MMA community and has a unique style of interviewing fighters. They brought out a different side of Fiziev. He had a six-fight winning streak before losing to Gaethje. Fiziev had a competitive fight against Gaethje. He won the first round convincingly.
