James Vick took to Instagram to comment on his loss to Justin Gaethje at UFC Fight Night 135 on Saturday night. Vick said in the post, which you can see below, that it the “worst night of my life.” He went on, however, to congratulate Gaethje and thank him for the opportunity.
“Tho confident in myself I did always respect you,” Vick said. “I said what I said to get and promote the fight. You are a class act and I do appreciate your kind words last night. I have no excuses. I was in shape, healthy and confident. I blew it. For all those that believed in me and support me I am truly sorry. I will go back and keep training and loving this life of being a fighter and a martial artist. This is the life I have chose and I guess this comes with the territory. Thanks to all my friends, family and teammates for the support and thank you @UFC for the opportunity.”
Vick lost to Gaethje in the main event of the show via a first-round knockout.
