A spectacular moment
ESPN is already talking about one of the most spectacular moments in MMA history. Some Internet users are even talking about “the greatest knockout” of all time in the UFC. It must be said that the sequence is quite crazy, with Holloway waving his arm at his opponent, 10 seconds from the end, to encourage the fight to end in fury. And at the end, this knockout…
There was no title on the line, but Holloway still stole the BMF belt, the “Baddest Motherfucker”, from Gaethje, an honorary distinction rewarding the toughest fighter in the UFC. And Holloway now hopes to challenge Ilia Topuria, the current featherweight champion, who was ringside for this fight.
