Never met an MMA fan who hated this man... Holloway is the most loved fighter in the UFC
next to. wonder boy
No one I know likes Max
@@DarkCloudNC then no one you know is worth knowing
@@DarkCloudNC😂😂😂
You live on a deserted island
Max the coward eye clawing fighter, even with the new gloves this dude still intentionally clawing both eyes of Justin. A coward not a bmf.
Max made a 50 First dates reference lol "Sharks only bite if you touch their private parts."
I thought I heard that somewhere before 🤣
Legendary
How you get that nasty cut anyways? 🤣
@@samrivera4736 a shark bit me lol
Lmaoooooo Rob Schneider is so funny in that
He doesnt even have a scratch,absolute masterclass.
yup. his leg is destroyed lol😂 those saomon genes
His nose is all swollen
Definitely @@bluiii
@@bluiiithat’s literally his normal nose lol
Max Holloway was locked in and turned on. He refused to stop coming until he finished him and left him absolutely STIFF. Unbelievable
This comment sounds so sexual
⏸️⏸️⏸️⏸️⏸️⏸️
Left him more like a ragdoll
Uhm. He was getting chased. I agree with everything else though. One of the best ever
Pause
It took Max 10 seconds to raise his GOAT status. A true warrior!
yoi misspelled 25min soul thiefeing and then put him to sleep yeah
He’s not the goat if he lost to the same guy 3X
@@thewalruswasjason101it’s a figure of speech buddy don’t take it too serious just enjoy the show little guy.
@@thewalruswasjason101There's always some styles that are kryptonite for you. For example: Jon jones for DC, Max Holloway for jose also, toupuria for volk, and volk for max Holloway. So style make fights.
@@thewalruswasjason101he’s still goat status top 20 probably top 15
Everybody was doubting Holloway 🔥 Truly a BMF performance, Holloway is the embodiment of BMF
I thought Justin would win..... 🤷 I weighed up the odds, and I got it wrong.. im still a huge fan of Max. have been for a long time ...... sucks when people act like they've never got a pick wrong...
@@WhatDemocracysomething like 90% of fans picked JG including myself, but 80% of fighters picked Max to win........ nobody saw the fight going how it did tho! Max is a certified legend
@@InspectorButters4 1000% he is a future HoF inductee for sure. Any person who isn't a fan of Max must have issues 🤷
I wasn't. I put my money on Max!. He only lost to volk, and he barely lost. He looked good in those fights, and he also looked good after, being sort of a gate keeper. I didn't expect him to win like this of course :D. But I figured he could keep Justin on the outside. And in the imbedded series he looked like he actually gained some muscles.
@@WhatDemocracy Max gonna be in the HoF like 4 times before its all said and done lol, 3x for fights and 1x as a fighter..... he is THAT DUDE, he is HIM! 😎✌️
Dude did what a real BMF does the last ten seconds … let’s put it all on the line!
Max pointing gaethje to the middle was a thing of beauty 5.4.3 2 boom💥 flatlined..
Max is one of those rare fighters that are able to remain in their prime for a solid decade. Every time he fights he looks better, and he only fights savages. Belt or no belt he’s always dominating, Volk was his only kryptonite. What a career and he’s still young and never been knocked out.
He beat Volk twice especially the second fight dropped him twice. He did lose the 3rd fight tho
@@keaninishigaya6761you're reaching now, first fight its obviously volk won that.. second fight both men could win it..
@@marlonmungcal5047 bro volk got dropped twice the second fight how u win a fight getting dropped and wobbled twice and never even hurt your opponent, first fight max out landed Volk as well by a lot.
@@keaninishigaya6761 bro, volk won 34 and 5.. it's being scored by round
I died laughing when dude said "how are you uce" haha!🤣 @0:17
Max is part Samoan. Pat knows a lot of usos especially being from the nfl.
Theres not that many samoans in the nfl. College and HS has a ton tho. @DaFonz808
@@MandeepSingh-ki6vebruh there’s so many in the nfl. Maybe not full. But there’s a lot that have Samoan blood. Samoans have more players in the nfl per capita.
@@MandeepSingh-ki6veDon’t get mad cus no more red dot Indians.😂🤦🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
@@MandeepSingh-ki6vedon’t be mad cus there’s no red dot Indians in the nfl.😂😂😂
Yes they needa push Max big time, They underrated this dude so hard, Get this man that BAG
Styles make fights and he is 100% style
Max has both records for most strikes and significant strikes and Never even been dropped let alone KOd . He’s been the bmf for a long time
Gaethje dropped him in this fight. He popped back up so fast though.
@@thegrinderman1090it's not counted on the cards though 😂. Holloway was like.. "yeah I, uh slipped 🙄 yah slipped." at the post press. lol
Was just a slip. Check the stats, no KD's
At the post fight interview he may have said their legs might’ve gotten tangled, but he wasn’t sure. At another interview he was surprised when someone told him it was not ruled a knockdown. Whether it was or wasn’t, he still gave respect and credit to Gaethje.
I’ve watched it on bootleg on CZcams multiple times and it looks like Gaethjes punch is what made Max go backwards like that anyways. Legs tangled because of the punch but regardless, on paper, it’s sick that he’s never been knocked down 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Bro went through a war against Justin for 25 minutes and didn't even had a scratch on his face...
UFC needs to bring an event to Hawaii... Holloway deserves to fight infront of his home crowd before he calls it quits 😤
they don’t got a big enough arena for a fight involving max. max has talked about it before and knows it wouldn’t work.
Bruh he’s 32 😂
Seems like you didn't see the post fight press conference. They brought it up and the UFC wants to do it but Hawaii lacks the infrastructure.
Also, Max said that he's okay with Vegas. It's literally nicknamed the ninth island because there's a big Polynesian population in Vegas.
Naw, stadium is under construction and aint no telling when it will be done. Also, ticket prices would be through the roof and locals wouldnt be able to attend….which kinda defeats the the purpose of having it in Hawaii.IMO. I know Max expressed this also and hes just looking out for his community.
Especially for the BMF title
Topuria vs Holloway is the only fight to make
I want to see Ilia fight another top 5 FW first. Max needs to heal that leg
Islam
@Whitto204not to mention it has to be Arman after that
@@jdisgood00max leg is fine bro walking after people putting too much into it max said it himself the leg kicks hurt but not to the point where it affected him, he even said how Joe overhyped them way too much, he would be ready to fight in 3-4 months easy
Max is a humble dude, but he is on GOAT status right now.
Dude literally gave Gaethje a chance to steal the fight when he didn’t have to and still slept that man
Lol. In between rounds Justin’s coach said don’t throw hooks because max is naturally faster and he will counter. Those ten seconds he just threw hooks and got countered all right 😂
The look on Maxs face the whole fight was crazy, his eyes were wide open and he was laser focused. From landing 15 spinnig heel kicks to the body (and the nose 😂) to the last second KO, Max just owned JG that entire fight!! Craziest 💩 ive ever seen 🤯
hes always like that. look at his eyes in any fight. in the Catter one he looked extra insane. imo. helps to stay aware and focused.
@@smashypeople that fight was so sick, he was in the zone
That jab, and spinning kick,
Just showed intelligence.
Spinning kick was a good move but Justin thought he was avoiding a spinning back fist not a kick.
@@jamesdunn1935no justin was ducking his head to avoid the jab, you can see him duck his head to avoid the jab earlier in the fight and max capitalised on it
@@mleyden2909gaethje ducks like that in every fight. Not sure why, I dont see anyone else doing it
@@mleyden2909 Yep I agree Max definitely had his game straight on Saturday
@@whateveryh2119 from what I seen he likes to duck the 1-2 or just the jab and spring up and land a hand lead hook tbh that’s also how he changes his levels and angles sometimes
Max was already a legend but he cemented his legacy in a way that will be talked about forever. Future hall of Famer for sure!!! if i ever see ufc fight id want it to be a Max card in vegas.
And to think that the Kattar fight would never be topped, Thats crazy, This dude has generated the most iconic moments in UFC, Dropping and Finishing Aldo 2x, Probably one for the best beatdowns in UFC history vs Ortega, the Kattar fight, this guy is Bonafide SUPERSTAR
Max literally raised his mortal status in just 10 seconds.
nate marx (fake name anyway) =inceI
still unemployed still no father
remember k3ys-3 🙏
Ke3ys-e3=
will find ur lP no worries
Max is the baddest mofo among a company of bad mofos!!! Putting a master class on Gaethje was INSANE, but to call him to the center and send him to the shadow realm with 1 SECOND TO GO......🤯🤯🤯🤯 Max the BMF and the 🐐 of holy 💩 moments!!! Respect and love bruddah Max ✌️😎
Blessed Man Forever.
Indeed! A much more suitable Title for the belt and it's rightful holder.
Big respect for acknowledging he got knocked down! Humble
Man wow!!! That KO by Max Holloway was absolutely insane!! He invited Justin Gaethje to throw it down in the center of the octagon, and getting the KO in the last second! Insanity 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Maximus Holloway
One of the most memorable nights as a MMA fan, those last 10 seconds had me screaming at my TV man 🤣
Hope to see Max fighting for the title next!
One of the most “HOLY F***” moments EVER. Full stop.
Been watching ufc since 2012 and this was the coolest moment I've ever saw by far
So pumped to see Max finally getting this push.
After Ilia knocks Volk out again I would absolutely love to see Ilia vs Max! 💯
I hate that you can comment his and be more or less accurate. Cant believe he got Volk like that. Hes the real deal.
Id love to see Volk take on Aljamain Sterling before he tries Ilia again.
A nice grappler heavy mathup
Nah Ilia should fight Max next.. Volk should rest for a good year, he got sent to another realm twice inside just a couple of months.
@@codedsoul7360yes please!!! Volks brain needs at least 1yr off from taking damage. He's still athletic and skilled enough to come back, but not when his brain/chin hasn't recovered
@@LincolnsRepeaterwhy the fk would volk fight aljo 😂😂😂😂
@@xfaithoverwatch4235 former BW champ vs FE Champ.
Aljo got a big win against Katar.
Good return fight after back to back KOs for Volk.
The look in Max Halloway’s eyes during the fight was intense. Dude looked like he popped a few Adderall right before the fight 😂
Cool interview👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
What Max Hollaway did on Saturday night was nothing short of legendary
Pereira went from white belt to black belt in about 2 years lmaooooo
BLESSED MAN FOREVER
Max is the one UFC fighter I'm following
Everyone thought he was going to lose that one but goodness lord that was a real war
Not everyone lol maybe everyone you know 😂 I had blessed winning this he's a tank
Boy I been waiting for this
He has cemented himself in hall of fame history forever, he makes Hawaii proud. Has inspired millions to believe in themselves, very admirable guy
Max! This was your Michael Jordan buzzer beater moment!!
Cheeeeeee💪💪💪💪💪
Hawaii’s champ🫶
Alex Perreira is so scary nobody mentioned he got his black belt after a fight with 0 grappling 🤣😂🤣
Bless Max forever
The Best is Blesses Baby!!! Congratulations Legend it will always be an honor to be alive in the era of Max Blessed Holloway
Max, finally getting his due.
Good job brother, about time.
looks at Maxs leg, sees image of Justins head(he left his trademark pic). in 3d. Top fight forever Max. Greatest hands in the biz. #1 mid fight coach in UFC, Most humble and respected. Cant say enough good about Max Holloway.
Show me your opinions, whether similar or different....
UFC 300 saw the Best KO in *UFC History* , all things considered, hands down. Here's my list:
1) Holloway vs Gaethje (Up a weightclass, against the heaviest hitter, called for it last-second)
2) Congo vs. Barry (knocked out to KO in a couple seconds)
3) Crocop vs. Gonzaga ("Right kick, hospital. Left kick cemeta--WHAT?!")
4) Silva vs. Weidman (The most improbable)
5) Aldo vs. Mcgregor (Absolutely jaw-dropping surprise after uncharacteristic start)
6) TKZ vs. Rodriguez (Surprise elbow, last second)
7) Shogun vs. Machida (Standing KO vs. the Undefeated Karate Master)
8) Miocic vs. Cormier (Smaller wrestler/LHW champ KO's the UFC's most accomplished HW champ)
9) Etim vs. Barboza (most beautiful kick landed on a taller fighter who'd never been KO'd)
11) Uno vs. Penn (Championship-level fight, fighter gets obliterated by flying knee & punches)
11) Hendo vs. Bisping (Possibly most devastating KO to iron-chin)
Id take leons over this.... the stakes were so much higher and he already had an L to usman... my opinion anyway.... but i love your list!
This is an old heads list for sure haha. Need Leon vs Kamaru and Masvidal vs Askren, list is solid tho.
Idk man. I think we’ve gotten to a point in time where there are so many great kos it’s impossible to confidently rank haha
Remember seeing uno vs Penn in ac 03. Forgot how good that fight was.
@@andywang3846I'm with u, if I really took the time I could come up with a list of 100 insane KOs, just in the UFC. None made me go OMG as much as the one Max just had tho, bc Max been my fav fighter for a LONG time......and I picked against him!! 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ lol
Doesn't even look like he just fought 5 rounds with Justin gaethje
Seriously man, MMA math is crazy. What Gaethje did to Tony, what Poirier did to Conor, what Gaethje did to Poirier, and now what Holloway did to Gaethje. The levels to this game is just unreal
@@abhishek8587 that’s why it’s the best combat sport imo. You just never know and these guys have to fight each other. Unlike boxing where people may not even fight each other in their primes. This is the most savage sport
So happy Max had this moment. He is so deserving of the attention he gets.
I like Justin but i dont think ive ever wanted a guy to get a PPV win as much as i wanted to see Max getting habd raised at 300. Absolute legend in every sense
The best is blessed
Max is by far my favorite fighter
Respectful, has an edge, sick style, game for whoever.
Win or lose comes to THROW DOWN
Max is 🔥
Holloway was my bet of the weekend! 🔥
Blessed man!
I don't get how people doubted Max for this fight.....dude literally has been fighting Volk 🤯 definitely Blessed Man Forever, brother 🤙🏽
Love the show 👏
The Best is Blessed
Legendary fight from Max.. congratulations to the real BMF!
Let's appreciate Max's fight IQ and strategy. First he took Justin's sight, then his ability to breath, and at that moment he knew he can stay in octagon for five rounds. j/k
BMF = Blessed Man Forever! The best is Blessed! Max Holloway! Let’s go!
Max Holloway is one of the greatest fighters in MMA history. Top 10 .
BLESSED EXPRESS
Holloway humbles even the UFC trolls. That’s powerful
Blessed Man Forever!!
One of the best entertainers, Max has always brought it
Max with the Wolverine Russell Wilson reference
I doubted him. I did NOT think he’d be able to go up against Gaethje who is just an absolute destroyer. The way he ate all those leg kicks is really wild.
And with that amazing finish he absolutely fits the moniker of BMF on the planet.
BMF!!! MAX BLESSED HOLLOWAY! 👊😎
Max blessed Holloway ❤
Congrats Max, well deserved 👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Max is looking fresh after 5 rounds of war with Gaetjhe ..insane
Another fight like that
Jair Rodriguez vs the zombie last second knock out
From The Blessed to The Immortal. Honestly. What he did will etch his name in UFC history. Max deserved it before this, but this just made it undeniable. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving fighter right now. He deserves his Red Panty night.
He's stepped in there with Jose Aldo (2x), Alexander Volkanovski (3x), Dustin Poitier (2x), Conor McGregor, Charles Oliveira, and Anthony Pettis and he's never dropped to the canvas. Now Justin Gaethje. I never understood why people were doubting him.
These questions are better than ufc media
"I just get high and look at the water" LMAO
This dude was winning the fight 50-45 and chose to exhilarate us with 10 seconds of pure, gory fisticuffs.
Dude is absolutely a savage, a good family guy and a champion. Proud of this dude. An inspiration
Max knows he got knocked down***. He is such a respectable human.
Yin doesn't work without yang. Blessed man forever
Shout out to Rob Scheneider he said that shark line from 50 first dates. All mainlanders should watch that movie. Its a Adam Sandler movie.
I don't necessarily assume any fighter is particularly dumb, but I was surprised at how smart Max is hearing him talk here.
ty
The most deserving man to hold this belt!
Kanaka maoli big up max
Max, you’re a warrior. That was amazing!
yessuh the best is blessed
the GOAT is BLESSED
Congrats chandler for finally getting a date to fight the money fight
😂😂😂
I knew he was gonna make this competitive but I don't think anyone thought he would masterclass Justin. Wow.
29 UFC fights in just over 12 years for Max. Absolute legend, this was his moment.
I don't know who Max has been hanging out with lately but my God he's killing me with the brother stuff
Max had to be perfect in this one/ dialed-in every second and that’s exactly what he was. Perfect fight
I would just like say Yair Rodriguez knocked out Koren zombie spinning back elbow last second fight as well soooooo lol
Yeah, but what Max did was just cold as ice. Pointed and just said "Let's go MF, somebody getting this bonus tonight and we finna find out who"
You asked him about Bo nichal but didn't really. Wanted to hear the answer
Max one of the GOATS!
Buzzer BEATER Bless Holloway... KO of the Year... 💯
Max went from pillow hands to hands of stoned out of no where. 2 BRUTAL knockouts in a row
Really amazing max
That’s why max looked so crisp because he brought sparring back. When he got rid of sparring during covid he wasn’t the same exciting fighter. Now I see why he was so good on Saturday
Bro he stopped sparring and put on the best performance of his life vs katter, he simply struggles against smaller fighters
Uce from Hawaii 😂😂 Yessah
