Max Holloway is undoubtedly a real BMF.
The previous UFC featherweight champ and recently minted light-weight competitor launched behind-the-scenes video on Monday recording the in the past and after of his now-legendary UFC 300 bout versus Justin Gaethje. The video footage, which released on Holloway’s YouTube channel, reveals Holloway’s arrival to Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena along with his group, a friendly exchange with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg throughout warm-ups, and Holloway’s instant response following his amazing knockout of Gaethje.
In spite of being well ahead on the scorecards, Holloway called Gaethje to the center of the cage in the bout’s last 10 seconds and started a furious exchange, eventually landing a renowned knockout at the 4:59 mark of the 3rd round to win the UFC’s ritualistic “BMF” belt.

“That last 10 seconds was for you. All week, you informed me, ‘Just toss,'” Holloway states over the phone while being in the backstage medical camping tent right away after the bout. “All week. I was injuring him, I was harming, however f ****** a hurt lion is more harmful. Each time I injured him, he had the craziest appearance in his eyes. I resembled, ‘F *** this. I ain’t attempting absolutely nothing dumb.”
Holloway is now a leading competitor in both the featherweight and light-weight department, having actually stood out of UFC featherweight champ Ilia Topuria. In a Monday interview with The Pat McAfee ShowHolloway compared combating Gaethje to “going through evictions of hell.”
