Justin Gaethje Autographs
Justin Ray Gaethje (/ˈɡeɪdʒi/; born November 14, 1988) is an American professional mixed martial artist. He currently competes in the Lightweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). A professional since 2011, he is a former UFC Interim Lightweight Champion, and former UFC BMF Champion. Gaethje is the second fighter to win the BMF championship after Jorge Masvidal winning the title at UFC 291. As of April 16, 2024, he is #3 in the UFC lightweight rankings.
Justin Ray Gaethje was born on November 14, 1988, in Tucson, Arizona and was raised in Safford, Arizona. His mother, Carolina (née Espinoza), is of Mexican descent from Sonora, Mexico and his father, John Ray Gaethje, is of German descent. His mother was a postmaster while his father was a copper miner, as were both of his grandfathers. His paternal grandfather boxed while serving in the United States Army. Gaethje's father Ray retired as a copper miner in September 2019, after 36 years working at the Morenci mine.
Gaethje has two sisters. He also has a twin brother who worked at the Morenci mine for almost ten years. When he was 18, Gaethje spent a summer himself at the Morenci mine. He said to Brett Okamoto of ESPN in 2020, "I worked 7 days a week, 12 hours every day. I did it for 3 months straight and took one sick day, because I had to sleep. I did 96 hours one week." Gaethje recalled that as he was about to leave the mine to go to college, two of his co-workers told him, "You'll be right back, you ain't gonna make it in college. You'll be right back here." This motivated Gaethje to make a success of himself.
