The “BMF” title fight between Justin Gaethje and Max Holloway is one of the most anticipated matchups in recent UFC memory. Luckily, fight fans won’t have to wait much longer to see an all-out violent affair between “Highlight” and “Blessed” tomorrow night (Sat., April 13, 2024) at UFC 300 live on ESPN+ PPV from inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
While UFC 300’s card is arguably the best collection of fights ever put together, the “BMF” scrap between Gaethje and Holloway still sticks out as the most must-watch fight on the docket. Even with other matchups like Alex Pereira vs. Jamahal Hill, Charles Oliveira vs. Arman Tsarukyan, Holly Holm vs. Kayla Harrison, and Zhang Weili vs. Yan Xiaonan gracing the main card and “Prelims,” all eyes will be on Gaethje-Holloway when the “BMF” title goes up for grabs.
On Saturday, the two fighters took to the stage for UFC 300’s ceremonial weigh ins and one final staredown. The two veterans remained cordial as they have been all week, but that shouldn’t confuse fight fans. Gaethje and Holloway are willing to die inside of the cage to get the job done at UFC 300. Both fighters spoke with UFC color commentator Joe Rogan after their last faceoff and reassured fight fans that tomorrow’s “BMF” title fight will be one of a kind.

“Violence. Just violence baby,” said Holloway, who will be making his return to 155 pounds for the first time since 2019.

“This is everything. Without this win I don’t get that [title] shot,” said Gaethje, who is looking to become the first fighter to defend the “BMF” strap. “Best live show on Earth tomorrow night. I guarantee it.”
What say you, Maniacs? Will Gaethje vs. Holloway live up to the billing? Who are you picking to walk out of UFC 300 with the “BMF” title?
