Phuket Top Team, the reputable MMA Training Camp in Thailand, recently came with an unusual request to top ranked UFC lightweight Justin Gaethje.

On social media, they claimed that his next opponent, No. 6 ranked Rafael Fiziev, had failed to pay three months of rent to the gym – and now Phuket Top Team wants Gaethje to collect the bills at UFC 286 in London.

“Fiziev owes 3 months rent for over 3 years to Thai house owner. Has written to them saying he would pay multiple times, but never has. Doesn’t dispute owing rent just doesn’t want want to pay it. Justin Gaethje please collect the rent,” Phuket Top Team wrote on Twitter.
