“I would very much like to be part of any part of it. I love to represent this country. I can’t wait to fly this flag, go into Octagon. It’s been a while since I’ve been proud to be an American and we’re back there. I’m happy to represent this country,” Gaethje said via TMZ.
“Anytime someone at this position needs my help. I’m more than willing.”

“I think there are more skilled people (than myself), but I had no children, no wife. So if Patel needs someone to out there and earn some justice, I would very much like to be part of that team.”
UFC President Dana White and Patel know each other, but despite the relationship, the UFC has not been made aware of any information about a potential collaboration, a UFC source told Pakinomist Digital Thursday. FBI rejected comment.
