He’s definitely going to be a Hall of Famer. It’s what BMF’s do. They take fights, they fight each other, and they show the world what’s up.”

In the midst of a two-fight winning run, Holloway most recently turned in a blistering knockout win over former title challenger, Chan Sung Jung in the main event of UFC Fight Night Singapore back in August. The win came off the back of a decision win over English contender, Arnold Allen in another main event clash.
