It may surprise some to know that this is the kinda thing that makes me smile, but the greatest knockout in mixed martials history happened this weekend. Like it's not even a debate. I mean universally this is considered something that has never happened before and may never happen again
Essentially Max Holloway and Justin Gaethje were fighting for the BMF Title (Baddest Motherfer). They both have a record number of victories over opponents who have a record number of victories. Whats got everyone so up in arms is that Max is a "point" fighter where as Justin is a knockout artist. This means Max is the kinda guy that hits you 100 times when you only hit him 50 and wins more often by decision than knockouts where as Justin is a Knockout artist, someone who wins by ..knocking people out. If this were streetfighter it's Sakura vs Zangief.
Max had already won the 25 minutes 5 round fight. He Broken justins nose, which had inhibited his breathing, despite being a colorado native, and was just dancing around him the whole fight. Wasn't even a question, everyone knew it, Max had like 200 points on him. In the last 10 seconds Max aka Lil'Mac basically said "Hey Mike Tyson, lets just duke it out for the fans!" and the rest is history. I suggest watching the entire fight if you can. It's now considered MMA history. No ones ever done this before. This is like Bloodsport shit.
It's sorta funny because irl max is a total kitten. Like you wouldn't be surprised to find him on a beach in hawaii cooking bbq for people and hugging everybody. Super nice guy.
