Media Max Holloway calls out Justin Gaethje

Speaking on the “MMA Hour” show, Holloway said he was “possibly” over 180lbs when he started the weight cut. Now, just imagine though what type of hell he is going through to go down to 145lbs.

Against Jose Aldo, Holloway weighed 178lbs on fight night that took place at 145 pounds. That’s insane!
 
I have been wanting this fight, but Justin beats max
In round 1 & at the end of round 2 he got beat up but Max won rd 3, 4 & 5 were razor thin. 47-47(like Khabib scored) is completely plausible. As was 49-45 or 48-46. It was a great fight
ya idk how 47-47 makes sense, Dustin no doubt won that fight, I had 49-46

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
Terrible take. Go back and watch the fight. Holloway had Poirier in danger at one point and got pretty close to a finish.
 
Let's not pretend that wasn't a super competitive fight against a prime Poirier. A fight in which it didn't even look like Holloway put on the proper weight for.

I would definitely favor Gaethje but Holloway shouldn't be counted out as some scrub who's going to get finished in one round.
Max almost got knocked out in that 1st rd of the Dustin fight
 
Man some of these ufc fighters are so epic. Especially Max. Really he's a wonder.

Would be a sick fight tbh.
 
It's crazy how fighters hamd UFC matchmakers grade A opportunities on a silver platter. If they don't try to book this, they are idiots. If they fail, they fail. But to not try is insanity.
 
i wouldn't be opposed to it. holloway might actually get slept for the first time in his career. or justin could gas himself out and lose by late tko

It wasnt super competitive at all lol!

Max got eaten up in that fight even though he outlanded Poirier the power difference was huge, the shots Max landed Poirier walked through and the ones Dustin landed were stopping any momentum Max tried to get. As a max fan it was hard watch, but that fight imo was not close at all, Poirier clearly did far more damage and controlled it.
