Max Holloway is a name that echoes through the halls of UFC legends. Known for his striking prowess and iron chin, Max had seen it all. He’d tasted gold, lost it, and now he hungered for more.
Max’s journey took an unexpected turn at UFC 300 and faced the fearsome Justin Gaethje. The fight was a barnburner, with both men trading blows like there was no tomorrow. In the final seconds, Max pulled off the impossible and knocked out Gaethje. Now, he’s set his sights on reclaiming his featherweight throne at UFC 308.
“Everybody thought UFC 300 was amazing. Wait until they get to see the outcome of UFC 308, it’s going to be a good one…I’ve been going hard over the last few years trying to regain my throne. A lot of people laughed, but we’ll see who gets the last laugh come October 26,” said Holloway via his YouTube channel.
Max Holloway has been quietly preparing, honing his skills like a samurai sharpening his blade. He’s faced doubters before, but this time feels different. There’s a fire in his belly that burns hotter than ever.
Ilia Topuria, never one to mince words, has promised a first-round knockout. He’s been trolling Max at every turn. But Max is cool as a cucumber. He knows he has been counted out before and has been told he’d never fight for the title again. Yet here he is, defying the odds once more.

Max Holloway has never been knocked out. He is a living legend, a man who could take a punch and keep on swinging. But Topuria isn’t buying it and has made a bold prediction about his upcoming fight.

As October 26th approaches, the anticipation is building. Would Topuria back up his bold claims? Or would Holloway prove once again why he’s one of the most beloved fighters in UFC history? Only time will tell.
