But I think this time he actually means it cause Justin gave him a chance when he didn't have to. If not for this fight people would have written Max off and he would probably never have gotten a title fight again.@@oldmedstudent1750
My loudest UFC related scream was when Bisping beat Rockhold to win the belt. Max face-planting Justin with 1 second left in the fight is definitely a very close 2nd. Max is a freakin warrior. Great dude too.
It is insane that max is only 32. To have accomplished all that he has done already is literally worth 2 hall of fame careers. And max isn’t even done or close to being done yet.
I love his nickname blessed because that is exactly how I feel having gotten to see him, as he phrased it, grow up I front of us. He was legend and veteran before 30. What an incredible career
Fighters can be "done" with just one fight. All it takes is one bad KO, and that's it. Mike Tyson being the prime example. After Buster Douglas, he was never the same again. Same for Meldrick Taylor. After he fought Chavez, he was never the same again.
Max is Hawaii's finest and fighter that represents the islands from Oahu .😅He's a warrior but still a human being not perfect, love the man he has become with his wife and ohana. Our beloved warrior y'know the song Oh..Hawaiian KickBoxer. Max bless Holloway. Much Aloha love you bradda.
Holloway is in a different class than Ferg with all respect. he never has been KOd his chin his the key thing. Justin landed a clean overhand right directly onto Maxs chin right before Max knocked him out it didnt even faze him thats the same guy who Khabib said hit the hardest who he ever fought
@@mattlol163i think the point is that max had never been dropped before the gaethje fight, so he could’ve just sat there and said “nah i slipped” to keep that little streak of never being dropped in the ufc, especially against the people that he’s fought
Before the Gaetje knockdown, Max absorbed 1100+ strikes over a span of 12 year UFC career, and never got dropped. Jon Jones comes in at 2nd with 750 absorbed and not getting knocked down.
On par with the mcgrogor Aldo ko for a title and the masvidal vs askren ko for fastest ko as one of best kos of all time tbh when you consider how holy shit it was.
Dude same. Oh my lord. I keep watching events from all major organizations and just feels like there's a hole. I watch the Max fight after watching each event came later. 😅 We're nuts.
Max always comes across well in interviews. He seems to be such a pleasant human being to be around. Sense of humour, self-awareness, shows respect to his opponents in victory and defeat. I've never heard anyone say a bad word about Max. Hope he continues to fight well and get paid.
Me too!! I cannot bring myself to watch the fight again. I have watched all of Justin’s fights so many times that I can even quote the announcers. “ Big right from Gaethje” “This is why we came to Philly boys” JG supporter for the rest of my life. He is the best ever and you can never change my mind.
What's wild about Max is that his chin is still rock solid, despite his already storied career. And when you look back on his résumé, it feels like he's been fighting forever, even though he's only 32.
It's crazy that he has most strikes landed and absorbed by a long shot but those that are closest have been long since retired. He'll have records set that will never be broken by the time he retires.
I thought Max was not going to withstand the volume of hits from guys like Justin but Max kept the pressure but also his distance until the last 10 secs where we went after volume and got the craziest KO. Kudos. This is like a leopard beating a lioness. Crazy feat.
IMO Max is a candidate for the GOAT discussion. Sure he lost a couple fights, but what he achieved and the way he reinvented himself over more than a decade.That guy is one of the reasons I'm watching this sport.
I´ve got a screenshot of conversation with my brother. He was saying Justin by K.O and I responded with "Max is going to bring out the old Gaethje and knock him out". When I saw it happen I got chills. Right after I did 10 laps around my house. What a legendary fight!!
Max is real life legend / I can’t think of another warrior with his experience in the ufc and in his prime. Real life active goat 🐐. Never missed a Holloway fight. One of the best if not the best hands in the promotion.
5:06 rogan insinuating that the idea of somebody’s chin deteriorating is “ridiculous”. But then constantly contradicts himself by bringing up chuck liddel and Tony Ferguson.
He was talking about Max specifically. In the past he’s talked about fighters having a certain amount of punches your chin could take before it turns to glass. He’s mentioned Chuck Liddell and Tony Ferguson dealing with that in the past.
No need to apologize. A lott of people consider him punchdrunk and not as sharp as he used to be, but max inside the ring has always improved. The only reason I had money on a Ko was because of how long I've followed his career
I remember before the fight, grabbing some beers with my dead and telling him how much I was feeling Max was going to get KO and that I felt so bad about that. You can imagine how much I screamed and in shock I was when he sent Justin to the 5th realm, not the mention how he domiinated the whole shit. I was in shock the entire fight.
I ran into Max the next day of the BMF fight & he is as advertised. He was walking through the casino with a group of friends, tells his group to go ahead while he stopped to take pictures with everyone that asked. The man is super humble & one of the nicest athletes I’ve ever met.
@@quasar7403 he also said on the podcast he’s surpised max would want that fight and your way of saying could also be construed as a nice way of saying he thinks max is gonna lose. Most people did! I was very surprised max fought a perfect fight and dominated the scariest lightweight on the planet!
What I slept on was how much more power Max would get from going up to LW. I thought Justin would knock him out as he hits like a middleweight. I had a good feeling Max could win by fighting smart, but I did not expect him to do so much damage w the hands. I'm a huge Max fan, so I was happy to see it. Also was there in person and it was insane as shit.
@@callanc3925 even for the normal guy , if you've never worked out your whole life and you're 32 you can still get in the best shape of your life for the rest of your life
The fact that he spent almost 8 min talking about Gaethje and giving him props in a fight that Max made it look pretty easy. Max is such a great man.
That’s what I was gonna say. Man is so humble he’s complimenting the strengths of the dudes he beat
Blessed. Noone like him
Even when he spoke about the 3rd Volk fight, he is so matter of fact about it, giving props, "that was just volks night, he was on!"
@@anthonycarpenter9662 While I agree, and love me some Max. Usually complimenting the dude you just crushed is a type of humblebrag.

For real. To think this man is just entering his prime…
He’s in his prime rn
His 3rd chapter may be his best too. At least I hope.
Fighters can be "done" with just one fight. All it takes is one bad KO, and that's it. Mike Tyson being the prime example. After Buster Douglas, he was never the same again. Same for Meldrick Taylor. After he fought Chavez, he was never the same again.
The fact that he beat Gaethje and is ranked like 9 is fucking bullshit
The rankings are stupid.
It is what it is
dont let the numbers get to you. they dont mean anything

How can anyone not like Max. Warrior in the Octagon, Humble and honest outside the Octagon. No BS, no Hype, just straight up 100% real. RESPECT✊
Its impossible to dislike this man ! We love you max !!!

Max is Hawaii's finest and fighter that represents the islands from Oahu .😅He's a warrior but still a human being not perfect, love the man he has become with his wife and ohana. Our beloved warrior y'know the song Oh..Hawaiian KickBoxer. Max bless Holloway. Much Aloha love you bradda.
Those are the killers bubba.
I was never a huge Max fan, after that fight I became one. He’s always been an amazing fighter but I realized how much of a great guy he truly is.
Holloway proved me wrong in the biggest way. I thought Gaethje was gonna be too much for him and do a similar job to Holloway what he did to Tony.
Holloway is in a different class than Ferg with all respect. he never has been KOd his chin his the key thing. Justin landed a clean overhand right directly onto Maxs chin right before Max knocked him out it didnt even faze him thats the same guy who Khabib said hit the hardest who he ever fought
he's been my favorite fighter for years
Huge Max fan and was wondering the same.
@Thehomelessathlete any real max fans knew it was a good matchup for max to win and finish
Because you’re a casual
Humble beginnings to humble goat. Blessed man forever.
he really is actually F*CKING HIM! Love Max
How do you know really him? Could be Inter-dimensional Hax Molloway.

Before the Gaetje knockdown, Max absorbed 1100+ strikes over a span of 12 year UFC career, and never got dropped.
Jon Jones comes in at 2nd with 750 absorbed and not getting knocked down.
That's a real BMF stat

Set a record for most sig strikes in a round on him too
I'll be chasing the high i felt from watching that fight forever.. I'm still watching the knockout at least 2-3 times daily
Same😂
The adrenaline rush I felt when Justin fell face down was something else.
On par with the mcgrogor Aldo ko for a title and the masvidal vs askren ko for fastest ko as one of best kos of all time tbh when you consider how holy shit it was.

Blessed Express baby! All day every day, let's goo!!!!
Now I have to rewatch the last 10 seconds again
Yea next video I am watching, might be recency bias but greatest moment ever in UFC.
Max has been one of the good dudes for a long time~~!
I never counted him out... but I didn't think he would do as well as he did. Savage!
Giving props to his opponents the way he does is truly the attitude of a champion and warrior. Max is him!!
Not a single excuse for Volk Holloway 3. Great man!
When u he said “he went to Wakanda too I was thinking how” 😂😂😂😂
Take a sip every time Max says bro. 😂
Now I have a DUI
Max is a perfect compliment to The Joe Rogan show
Max: Gaethje dropped me bad
UFC: Nah that never happened
J.G is my fav fighter.
Im still hurt to this day
He’s a good dude and a great fighter
Me too!! I cannot bring myself to watch the fight again. I have watched all of Justin’s fights so many times that I can even quote the announcers. “ Big right from Gaethje” “This is why we came to Philly boys” JG supporter for the rest of my life. He is the best ever and you can never change my mind.
Hes so entertaining but Max is fr the best Guy to lose to
Now you know how tony fans felt 🙄

Wish both Holloway and Justin were there at the podcast - would have been epic
Peoples champ fight - Holloway v Porier
Whyte People's champ
Nah real shit just max lost twice

IMO Max is a candidate for the GOAT discussion. Sure he lost a couple fights, but what he achieved and the way he reinvented himself over more than a decade.That guy is one of the reasons I'm watching this sport.
I'd say Max Holloway is the greatest Featherweight of all time. Also, Leon Edwards is a contender for goat aswell
If it weren’t for Volk, we wouldn’t be having GOAT conversations about Max, it would be undisputed.
It is what it is brudda
If ! What's your point? We can play the "if " game all day
@@ERMAC4482his point is pretty clear. Its a testament to how good max is. Comparisons are always a good measuring tool for anything.
