Media Max Holloway calls out Justin Gaethje

Its questionable if Gaethje will be fighting Islam next, and the BMF is one of those fun-titles and not a #1 contender belt.

Max basically is a journeyman at 145, so having him fight Gaethje at 155 would be a great 'Just Bleed' fight for the 'Just Bleed' title.

A journeyman?

jour·ney·man
/ˈjərnēmən/
noun
1.
a worker or sports player who is reliable but NOT OUTSTANDING.

How has Max not been outstanding sir?

How has Max not been outstanding sir?

I meant gatekeeper.

Thanks for pointing out that needed correcting.
 
He is the #1 guy in the FW division.. that's far from a gatekeeper or journeyman sir.

*Sigh*.... he's a gatekeeper because he's 0-3 against the champ. No shame in that when the champ is a Top #10 P4P ever.

His role in the division is to beat would-be challengers for the belt, and whoever beats him gets an immediate title shot.

I imagine he's not satisfied with that so a change of division would be in his interests, and a 'Just Bleed' fight against Gaethje is the most interesting match for him, while not being the best match for him. He wants a challenge.

Edit - I have 100% respect for Max.

Good one GSM, like this on all WME levels!

Once Vince reads this idea, it's soon to be a reality.
 
Max Holloway is going to get Tony Ferguson’ed
 
And at LW sir.
Oh i know. He was mentioning the Dustin being a LW and Max being a FW and the size advantage.

Using his logic, Dustin beat Max while being compromised due to the weightcut that isn't as large for Max.

I don't think that move is a good one unless he stays there.
 
Max ends JG 4 - EVER

Possibly
I think I favour JG, but like both guys so don't care who wins

I think Max would find it hard to stop him, but might put a beating on him to win a decision

If Charles is next for islam and Justin is happy? The Pink Goof needs to get this signed, as this is a fan friendly fight for sure and I'd like it over 5 rounds if possible
 
I wrote it sir, I don't see any point in him staying at FW.
If he stays at LW it gives him a chance to gain the muscle mass needed to compete.

That conveys your message much clearly.

If he moves to 155, but also gained muscle mass to compete he'd be Top 5 easily.

Otherwise, well... Poirier tooled him pretty easily at 155. The size difference was massive.

Edit - Ok, not 'easily' but it was 50-45 if I recall correctly. Its been a while.
 
Canelo vs brook
Canelo vs khan
Canelo vs Charlo
Rockhold vs Jan
Weidman vs reyes
Israel vs Jan
Want me to keep going because I could probably do 20 examples
He asked for 10 and you gave him 3 …( boxing don’t count )

Max had his moments but the size discrepancy was a steep hill to climb.
 
Gaethje stops Holloway.

he beat the Shit out of max. Max couldn’t phase Dustin. Sure he landed but was beaten so bad he looks like a homeless meth head at 30

FYI Poirier admitted he almost felt like quitting against Holloway. While Poirier was never rocked, the volume and pressure had him in real trouble late in the fight.
