Justin Gaethje, the man fans call ‘The Highlight,’ just added another unforgettable moment to his highlight reel. But this time, he was on the receiving end. The former BMF champion faced off against Max Holloway in a battle for the BMF title. The fight lived up to the hype, delivering non-stop action from bell to bell. But in the final seconds, Holloway landed a picture-perfect shot that sent Gaethje to dreamland.

When Justin Gaethje regained consciousness, his first thought wasn’t about the fight or his lost title. It wasn’t even about his aching head. No, his first words were something very different.
“Really do not know, I have not thought about it too much. I got knocked out, woke up, and was like, ‘I wanna golf.’ And I’ve been golfing every day since,” said Gaethje via MMA Fighting.
Fans were understandably shocked. Here’s a guy known for his love of violence, suddenly pining for the greens of the golf course. It’s like finding out Mike Tyson’s secret passion is knitting. And Gaethje wasn’t joking. He has been playing golf every day since the fight.
But Justin Gaethje has assured everyone that he is not hanging up his gloves just yet. He still has his sights set on that UFC lightweight title. The golf course will just have to settle for being his side piece, for now!
