"I feel it's a good fight, good experience. I usually go for one round when I fight. I don't train for one round, but it [the finish] always happens in the first round."
"Now I'm happy. I proved to people- people say all the time that I don't have the gas tank to go for 15 minutes. So now I proved that I have to gas tank to go for 15 minutes."
"Yes, obviously I want to fight on UFC Paris one day. There's many people there from Cameroon. It would be also good to fight in front of people from my country. It would be cool."
"I've got a name, I've got a name. I want to fight Marvin Vettori. I want to fight him. He's also a tough guy, so let's go for a fight,"
Ateba Gautier earned a unanimous decision win over Andrey Pulayev at UFC 324, improving to 10-1 and marking his fourth straight victory inside the octagon. Gautier had previously gone the distance only once, a split-decision loss early in his career, and proved his cardio by completing the full 15 minutes. He dismissed damage sustained as insignificant and emphasized readiness for more action in 2026. Gautier expressed interest in fighting in Paris to perform for Cameroonian fans and issued a callout to former title challenger Marvin Vettori, positioning himself for higher-profile matchups.
