Max Holloway clears the air on claims Justin Gaethje hits harder than Ilia Topuria, setting the record straight on both fighters.
Dustin Poirier will enter the Octagon for the final time Saturday night when he main events UFC 318 against Max Holloway. The two future UFC Hall of Famers have a history with each other that spans beyond a decade.
Prior to the Topuria loss, Holloway scored an iconic knockout of Justin Gaethje in his return to lightweight at UFC 300. This time, Holloway looked like a much more natural 155-pounder than he did when he lost to Poirier on short notice for the interim title at UFC 236.
Justin Gaethje breaks down the likely contenders for Ilia Topuria’s lightweight title, offering insight on the division’s next moves.
UFC lightweight Renato Moicano doesn't agree with Max Holloway's recent criticism of Ilia Topuria's iconic three-fight win streak.
Max Holloway told by UFC lightweight he was badly wrong about Ilia Topuria’s destructive 3-fight run
Topuria completed his ascent to two-division glory late last month when he headlined the UFC’s International Fight Week pay-per-view in Las Vegas. After bidding farewell to his reign as featherweight king, Topuria knocked out Charles Oliveira at UFC 317 to collect the vacant lightweight crown.
Max Holloway isn't ruling out the possibility of an Ilia Topuria rematch at lightweight. Holloway (26-8 MMA, 22-8 UFC) was knocked out for the first time in his career by Topuria (17-0 MMA, 9-0 UFC) in their featherweight title fight at UFC 308 last October.
Max Holloway believes Ilia Topuria's recent run isn't as good as people think and he explains why it isn't as good as some think.
