Started going down at 3 on 0 he was on the ground And once the timer ended still there. Im not even entirely sure on the ruling, but lets say the reff didn't call it "in time" is justin being laid out flat on the floor an automatic KO?
He was already in title contention. Because of the Oliveira injury and Ramadan, there are too many title contenders in LW, but Gaethje was on after KOing Dustin. He took the fight for PPV points as a belt holder for biggest UFC card.
A featherweight coming up to 155, after piecing up ufcs "hardest hitter" for 5 round,s to then tell him to stand and bang in the pocket for the last 10 seconds just to knock him out cold is crazy, a true BMF
Crazy how many iconic moments Max has given us. “I’m the best boxer in the UFC”, showing Ortega how to block mid fight, but this was something else. What an animal.
exactly, and not to forget he almost dropped Arnold Allen in the final round when the latter decided to throw it all out, and the same thing happened to Zombie who got knocked out. Nobody swings with Max and expects to get out alive ❤🔥
Justin a warrior for obliging on the toe to toe. In my eyes no credit is taken away, a loss yes but compared to the mans spirit no change. respect to both for putting their bodies on the line like that.
@@codylarkhart261seriously and Gaethje has always been a fan favorite hes def earned a lot of stock just from this fight hope he keeps his momentum goin after this but I think he will
Max pointing to the center of the octagon saying "Let's F'ing GO" in a fight he had clearly won was the most gangster thing I have ever seen. The stuff legends are made of.
@@freivonaußen Just because nothing is real in your life, doesn't mean that life is not real around you. Stop going through life thinking your being tricked all the time, and accept you cannot control everything else.
Its the fact that he 10 seconds from winning, on the biggest card of the decade, against the hardest hitter in a weight class up, and decided to go savage for the sake of being a bmf
1 month later and it still fills me with immense amounts of hype, truly the greatest knockout in combat sports history to me, has to be up there with the most iconic too
well he didnt just say "stand right here" it was something fighters have done in the past where they just stand and strike in the middle for the last 10 seconds. so he stand we both stand here, giving Gaethje a chance at winning
@@usernameisjonahhe gave Justin a chance if anything, Justin was losing that fight and max gave him the opportunity to finish him in the last 10 secs, max just finished him instead

@@cristian-gabrielgaldamezbr3810coldest moment I would say is max because Leon was losing the fight and max was styling on both max and Justin and it made it look even more insane.
Dont forget when he was literally teaching T-City how to block while whupping his ass. That was the Kattar performance before the Kattar performance lol 🤣 he fucked Ortega up
The broken nose was legit, the nasty 2 eyepokes were unfortunate. Broken nose messes your eyes up (I’ve broken mine 3x) and then to get eye DEEP eye pokes immediately, Max should keep them hands shut cause that was mad lame. The KO was solid and he did a good job, but the eye pokes irritated me. Definitely helped.
He didn't need to take the fight against the bigger, stronger opponent. He didn't have to stand and trade in the middle of the octagon when the fight was about to end and he was winning it. This is the stuff legends are made of. That boy is BLESSED
This is probably the most legendary moment ive witnessed live. I was hopping around like an excited kid yelling wtf just happened. This shit going down in history as one of the most iconic wins in UFC history.
I am a Max Holloway ride or die. I was hoping he was gonna show up and put a clinic on. I got worried when he pointed that Gaethje was gonna blast him with something. Every time I think Holloway can’t cement his legacy more, can’t become more of a hall of famer, can’t become more of a legend and one of the best athletes, fighters, and consummate professionals of this sport, he points to the center and fucking earns it. Shit is straight out of the Liddell era of fighters, of those trailblazers. Gaethje is no slouch. Unbelievable performance.
1 million replays of a 4minute 17seconds long video (257 seconds) would take you 257,000,000 seconds. That is 8 years, 71 days 18 hours and almost 58 minutes.

@@MegabightMy dear fellow, it is not beyond the realm of possibility that the gentleman above has discovered time travel and used such a power to show respect for the battle between two greats.
This was the greatest thing I've watched in UFC history. Over a decade of watching this shit, and this was the most epic and legendary stuff I've witnessed. Insane man
@@minormarley5195 Gaethje fan spotted… but no fr you are the biggest casual in the sport considering you use that word… The ones that have watched UFC or anything mma 20+ years never use the word “casual” lmao what a 🤡🤡
Been watching since 2003. This is the fucking wildest thing I’ve ever seen. I don’t think anything ever tops this. The UFC officially has jumped the shark.
KOd him twice, really. That first shot on the chin put JG out on his feet. He was just wild swinging out of instinct and pure testicular fortitude until that second chin shot fully shut the lights off.
This was my first ufc event I’ve ever attended live. And I’ve got to say, it’s easily the best live experience I’ve ever had and one of the most memorable days of my life lol I’ve watched this highlights over and over every day since
I was riding on the bus and this idea came to my mind. I think it should be a requirement to every fight for the final 10 seconds of the final round to just go blow for blow with each other.
Holloway kind of invented it honestly hes done that like 6 times already, he even said after the fight he knew if the positions where reversed Justin would have done the same meaning "I know im winning but lets go crazy and see if you can take it back".
It’s dope ; obviously can’t expect every fight to do that , but it’s something else to see it man, and it’s something else for the other man to accept it. Takes balls.
Max Holloway is that person that future generations would kill to see fight live. He has cemented himself as a legendary warrior that people will tell stories about in the future
That's cowardice, Max knows Gaethje has a broken nose and major breathing problems...since round 1 otherways I swear he will never ever dear to ask that look forward to the rematch
The context makes this finish even better ftom Max's POV. Moving up a weight class, being doubted by so many who said he wouldn't be able to hang at 155, being up on the scorecards where he could have just coasted to a decision victory... but no Decided to recreate (and one-up) his stand and bang moment with Ricardo Lamas... with one of the most dangerous fighters of all time in Gaethje... gets the KO with ONE SECOND LEFT... absolute madness
@@bhvillaman4401was a great card. You must be new to this. There's been similar cards that haven't come up to half the hype. This is one of the most iconic knockouts in any combat sports. Go to bed little guy
@@bhvillaman4401 It was one of the best cards ever. Very few have ever happened with this much violence in drama in one night. Only card that comes to mind was one of the first UFC ESPN events, the one with Brazilians in almost every fight, but that's literally the only card that was on par with 300.
You are TOTALLY wrong there. Justin catches him good in that exchange, and it could´ve been Max on the ground.. Max has the heart of a lion to go on an full exchange of blows with such a DANGEROUS man.. he could have thrown the fight@@ZachSheridan
Max was an underdog against Ortega, Kattar and Gaethje. And these 3 Fights became his greatest ever performances! Just shows how Bad this guy really is ☠️
Definitely not against Gaethje coz Gaethje is just a brawler and I always knew Holloway could get the job done. Congrats to Max Blessed and perhaps Gaethje should now work commentary
This was one of the most insane fights I've ever seen. Gaethje's Toughness is just beyond human. This is the best Holloway I think we've ever seen. This fight was psychedelic for me, I will never forget this fight.
To reach greatness you have to face greatness. Give JG props. He had almost nothing left, already beaten and dazed, but answers the call to the bitter end. Two proud warriors.
Looks F fake. The way he goes down like hollywood. And thin guy saying "stand right here" while running away himself the whole rime How can those thinny wrist blows be soo hard? Yes they hurt but not like u just fall on the floor dead
This and Sanchez-Melendez and the Edwards KO of Usman were the 3 top moments I remember everyone in the bar being stunned in silence then going nuts afterwards.
Max was already winning the game by decision so he didn’t need to risk those last seconds but he fkin didn’t give AF and truly went full BMF right there
He knew Justin wasn’t going to do anything but get clocked. Justin walked into that last 5 seconds knowing he was losing every exchanges. More respect to Justin honestly for giving max the opportunity to finish him.
@@Dustin031 horrible take. Max knew he was up and didn't need to swing but gave Justin a chance to trade punches cuz he felt that Justin would have done the same for him.
@@audit_the_fed max knew he wasn’t going to lose that exchange. He did give him a chance but if you were watching that fight Justin didn’t even wanna stand with him, he stepped up those last 5 seconds bc max called him out to.
First time my dad watched the UFC with me. He saw some clips before but never really liked it. Tonight he became an instant fan. A moment i will never forget. Thank you Justin and Max and thank you UFC. This sport is unbelievable.
That's awesome man, glad to hear you could make your dad a fan. My dad was heartbroken for a bit today cause he finally became a fan after Olivera vs Chandler. Thankfully Alex pulled through and he ended the night happy.
Ali vs Foreman? They slipped something in Foreman’s water and he said, it tasted medicinal. The cornermen, told him to drink and this caused the loss, FACTS
Fuckin hell I never noticed that. I’m a big Max fan and was so happy he won, but damn do I feel horrible for the brain damage Justin must’ve taken in that moment. Hope he recovers well with plenty of support from his loved ones
True but Justin last punch did land tho, so it could be the normal "unconscious" hip move, to aim a next one with the left hand... to me the precision made it all, but anyway what a finish ! 😮
Bro my family was asleep next to me, I was about to fall asleep before the fight(watched it late). I yelled and clapped so loud and woke everyone up 😅😂
@@BillionDollaGil probably wont see such a amazing fight in a long time. Also the hill fight against alex pereira was also great but that KO made the whole evening
Greatest moment in ufc history, will never get tired of watching this again and again and again forever This is the ultimate highlight of the UFC Watching this live was a blessing no one will know how it truly felt unless all watched every single second until gaethje's lifeless body falling to the ground
One of the sickest KOs ever. Max had the fight won easily, called for Justin to stand and bang, then shut Justin's lights out with 1 sec left. What a fuckin BOSS move!!!
I’m a boxing guy but I must admit UFC is taking over with fights like this, even if a fighter has losses they are still loved in the ufc and they put amazing fights ❤
2 eye pokes, a broken nose, still decides to throw down at the end AND gets knocked out cold for it. Justin Gaethje is one of a kind man. Thank you to both warriors for giving US the fans one of the best moments in fighting history
Dude… seriously. Justin is insane, such a warrior. I can’t believe he was there until the end, never wanted an extra second for either eye poke. We truly witnessed the two baddest dudes on the entire planet go at it, something that’s never happened in the history of humanity (except for maybe a few other UFC fights 😅)
@carltonpenaloza5806 Most gladiatorial combat was stopped at the first sign of blood. Those dudes were as valuable as UFC fighters to their respective promoters; they weren’t going to let them die constantly.
It’s honestly one of the greatest moments in not just UFC… MMA… or combat sports history… but one of the greatest moments in all of sports history. Unreal.
Max remembered Mighty Mouse dominating Kyoji Horiguchi all fight and then casually finishing him 4:59 Round 5 and decided "well imma do it too but now y'all remember forever"
@@hisoka8039 The elbow technique that Yair used was flashier, but this was definitely better. Higher stakes, biggest card of the year, better opponent. Just wild to end it like that
Vintage Holloway pointing to the ground & then just avenging Tony for us with a Flatline at the very last second is so crazy. Arguably my favorite KO ever
Peace be upon you. Believe in ALLAH (GOD) and the judgement day and do good deeds. Don't "sh..." as holy that will be better for you in this life and the heaerafter.
Yeah he did not fight like that against Alexander. Alexander has beaten other greats like Ortega but it is hard for me to believe he is that much better than Justin.
@palmtrees6228 Max beat Justin and Charles Justin beat Dustin Dustin beat Justin and Max (2x) Charles beat Dustin and Justin All stoppages (except one of the Dustin/Max fights), crazy man
Crazy to think he can top something like that when he literally wasn’t looking at his opponent talking to dc and dodging the punches but your right pretty crazy bad ass to say middle of the ring swing till ones out and to hit a buzzer beater for the bmf belt pretty unreal people gonna think he’s made up 100 years from now

Justin didn't have to fight Max. Max didn't have to stand & trade at the end. Two true BMFs. Legends.

Similar to Tony Ferguson not having to fight Gaethje and getting cracked
Like tony didn't had to fight Justin
He was already in title contention. Because of the Oliveira injury and Ramadan, there are too many title contenders in LW, but Gaethje was on after KOing Dustin.
He took the fight for PPV points as a belt holder for biggest UFC card.

Since the video was out 19 hours when you commented, I therefore proclaim, that you, sir, are lying, as you wouldn't be able to replay 1 million times during said period.

My insanely fantastic wife got us tickets to UFC 300 for my 40th birthday. Greatest birthday of my life. The whole weekend was incredible.
Buzzer beater KO is so insane. What an unbelievable performance by Max Holloway.
Max owns two of the greatest moments in UFC history. No has one moments like this or his flow state vs Kattar. The man is straight up built different.
He has 4 of those stand in the middle and fuck up the opps moments!!!!!

And this BMF moment!
Wrong but ok
But Volk did damage his legacy bro, he literally schooled him the 3rd fight
This is possibly my favorite performance of all time. Max blew everyone’s expectations out of the water. What an amazing fight and an iconic finish.
I agree exactly! What a legend!
This was my first ufc event I’ve ever attended live. And I’ve got to say, it’s easily the best live experience I’ve ever had and one of the most memorable days of my life lol I’ve watched this highlights over and over every day since
I was screaming in my living room. Best ending to a fight I've ever seen.
Same haha, been a long time since I have had this reaction to a fight. Love both of em but gott damn Max is a GOD of striking.
Me too I was walking around like o got the knock out
Lol sad
Same 😂
Don’t scream
Trading blows in the center with 10 seconds left needs to be a new requirement for any BMF fight
I second that
😂
I was riding on the bus and this idea came to my mind. I think it should be a requirement to every fight for the final 10 seconds of the final round to just go blow for blow with each other.
Holloway kind of invented it honestly
hes done that like 6 times already, he even said after the fight he knew if the positions where reversed Justin would have done the same meaning "I know im winning but lets go crazy and see if you can take it back".
It’s dope ; obviously can’t expect every fight to do that , but it’s something else to see it man, and it’s something else for the other man to accept it. Takes balls.
Max Holloway is that person that future generations would kill to see fight live. He has cemented himself as a legendary warrior that people will tell stories about in the future
I love how he was pretty much like “STAND RIGHT HERE!” and delivered!
Twice 0:10 & at 0:14
@@chunky9791 yessir! BMF certified action right there! 💯
Stand and deliver. They should start calling him the miracle man.

otherways I swear he will never ever dear to ask that
look forward to the rematch
I love how humble and respectful they are after putting up the main event. Great examples.
The context makes this finish even better ftom Max's POV.
Moving up a weight class, being doubted by so many who said he wouldn't be able to hang at 155, being up on the scorecards where he could have just coasted to a decision victory... but no
Decided to recreate (and one-up) his stand and bang moment with Ricardo Lamas... with one of the most dangerous fighters of all time in Gaethje... gets the KO with ONE SECOND LEFT... absolute madness
If it happened in a movie I’d be like “pfft this would never happen” 😂😮
He's a BMF....coasting is not a word in his vocabulary.
Incredible
I hope he gets that fighter of the night bonus. It was like 300k if I recall
@@NinjapowerMShe got 600k
The bmf title. UFC 300. One second left. Two future hall of famers. This has to be the best knockout in the history of MMA
This was for sure an "I was there" fight to live on forever. Shout out to the UFC for creating such an iconic moment in sports history!
For the best card ever it was mediocre at best
It was rigged

@@bhvillaman4401was a great card. You must be new to this. There's been similar cards that haven't come up to half the hype. This is one of the most iconic knockouts in any combat sports. Go to bed little guy
@@bhvillaman4401 It was one of the best cards ever. Very few have ever happened with this much violence in drama in one night.

@DoNotLookAtMyPFP. Bro, this shit is ancient. Probably as old as RUclips lmao
You are TOTALLY wrong there. Justin catches him good in that exchange, and it could´ve been Max on the ground.. Max has the heart of a lion to go on an full exchange of blows with such a DANGEROUS man.. he could have thrown the fight@@ZachSheridan
@@ZachSheridanhe was not safe lmao, he literally gave gaethje a chance to win
Max was an underdog against Ortega, Kattar and Gaethje. And these 3 Fights became his greatest ever performances! Just shows how Bad this guy really is ☠️
Azarão na casa de aposta, né ? Na realidade ele é bem mais lutador que Kattar e Ortega, só era azarão na luta com Justin.
That Orega fight... Holy shit was that masterclass
Definitely not against Gaethje coz Gaethje is just a brawler and I always knew Holloway could get the job done. Congrats to Max Blessed and perhaps Gaethje should now work commentary
Also, shows just how bmf Dustin is calling for this with Max at the beginning of round 5..
He wasn't a betting underdog against Ortega and kattar. Stop saying bullshit
Bro the shot of Holloway screaming like an animal after a knockout as the clock shows 0:00 is something else, gives me chills to this moment. Insane
Tbf how could anyone not go crazy after doing something THAT badass
This was one of the most insane fights I've ever seen. Gaethje's Toughness is just beyond human. This is the best Holloway I think we've ever seen. This fight was psychedelic for me, I will never forget this fight.
besides the Kattar fight this was his best by far
he was so much faster and he shattered Justins nose R1. gahdamn legend
Max is the m'fing legend of legends 🫣😂
I think when you rely on toughness that's generally a negative.

To reach greatness you have to face greatness. Give JG props. He had almost nothing left, already beaten and dazed, but answers the call to the bitter end. Two proud warriors.
This bro he went out on his fucking shield
100.
And is standing back up on his feet 2 minutes after getting KO’d, face-down, and literally unconscious. Both men are absolute warriors

I have never seen something better in my life in a whole MMA, this is literally a piece of art.
Best fight I’ve ever seen
Not true kid
Looks F fake. The way he goes down like hollywood. And thin guy saying "stand right here" while running away himself the whole rime
How can those thinny wrist blows be soo hard? Yes they hurt but not like u just fall on the floor dead
I have seen better, like AS vs Sonnen 1 , Dan vs Rua 1 etc.. but this fight is definitely one of the top 10 for sure.
This and Sanchez-Melendez and the Edwards KO of Usman were the 3 top moments I remember everyone in the bar being stunned in silence then going nuts afterwards.
Max was already winning the game by decision so he didn’t need to risk those last seconds but he fkin didn’t give AF and truly went full BMF right there
He knew Justin wasn’t going to do anything but get clocked. Justin walked into that last 5 seconds knowing he was losing every exchanges. More respect to Justin honestly for giving max the opportunity to finish him.
@@Dustin031 horrible take. Max knew he was up and didn't need to swing but gave Justin a chance to trade punches cuz he felt that Justin would have done the same for him.
@@audit_the_fed max knew he wasn’t going to lose that exchange. He did give him a chance but if you were watching that fight Justin didn’t even wanna stand with him, he stepped up those last 5 seconds bc max called him out to.

That's awesome man, glad to hear you could make your dad a fan. My dad was heartbroken for a bit today cause he finally became a fan after Olivera vs Chandler. Thankfully Alex pulled through and he ended the night happy.
I’ve been watching ufc for over 15 years and you just know when you witness those epic moments we talk about for years.
This one might be talked about 50 years later like Ali vs Foreman.
Ali vs Foreman? They slipped something in Foreman’s water and he said, it tasted medicinal. The cornermen, told him to drink and this caused the loss, FACTS
When Max's final punch lands, it instantly changes Justin's rotation around - look at his hips rotating before and after the punch lands. 1:32
Fuckin hell I never noticed that. I’m a big Max fan and was so happy he won, but damn do I feel horrible for the brain damage Justin must’ve taken in that moment. Hope he recovers well with plenty of support from his loved ones
True but Justin last punch did land tho, so it could be the normal "unconscious" hip move, to aim a next one with the left hand... to me the precision made it all, but anyway what a finish ! 😮
literally can’t stop rewatching it 😭

Had to come rewatch it on here make sure it truly happened 😅

I’m a boxing guy but I must admit UFC is taking over with fights like this, even if a fighter has losses they are still loved in the ufc and they put amazing fights ❤
Boxers would rather have a clean record nowadays rather than a list of great fights. Competitive fights are what makes the UFC great.
*Everyone else underperformed.*
*Max deserves that 300k. No one else.*

2 eye pokes, a broken nose, still decides to throw down at the end AND gets knocked out cold for it. Justin Gaethje is one of a kind man.
Thank you to both warriors for giving US the fans one of the best moments in fighting history
Dude… seriously. Justin is insane, such a warrior. I can’t believe he was there until the end, never wanted an extra second for either eye poke.

The guy is the real highlight of the UFC.
Ultra instinct was cooler in my opinion because it looked cooler
