UFC 300: Max Holloway beats Justin Gaethje with 'KO of the century'

One single moment of exceptional skill or talent is enough to completely capture the audience's attention.

During the significant UFC 300 occasion in Las Vegas, a remarkable number of 12 active or previous titleholders were competing. Nevertheless, Max Holloway managed to be extraordinary and attract attention.

As the lightweight match for the BMF championship came down to the last 10 seconds, Holloway gestured towards the ground, signaling for Gaethje to engage in a hand-to-hand combat.

As the two fighters were battling fiercely and using up their last bit of strength after enduring a tough five rounds, it was Holloway who landed the strongest punch. This caused Gaethje to fall to the ground just one second before the end of the match.

The packed audience at T-Mobile Arena cheered loudly, as TV cameras captured astonished looks from fighters observing from the cage side. The event was completely sold out.

Joe Rogan, the commentator of UFC, stated that the end was the "century's best knockout", and the UFC's leader Dana White compared it to a "scene straight out of a film".

At 32 years old, Holloway became the recipient of the special BMF title given to the toughest fighter in the UFC. This description suits him well, as he showed that he was not content to simply win the match by decision. Instead, he took a risky approach by going for a knockout and thrilling the audience.

White expressed that the creation of BMF had led them to this momentous occasion. This belt was made for tonight.

When you search for the acronym BMF in the dictionary, that fight's snapshot should be displayed. It was extraordinary. That's why people adore Max Holloway.

This evening marked a crucial moment in the career of a man who has already achieved remarkable feats - regarded as possibly the greatest featherweight to ever exist.

The video of the knockout has been viewed over 10 million times on social media. The UFC has taken advantage of its popularity by sharing the video globally, which is unusual since they don't usually do this after pay-per-view events due to broadcasting agreements.

Holloway's achievements brought him a whopping $600,000 (£481,000) in earnings, thanks to the bonuses he received for his exceptional performance and for being the standout fighter of the night in Hawaii.

Even though people praised him, Holloway admits that his knockout achievement is not the best moment of his career. He believes that his victory over Brazilian fighter Jose Aldo for the featherweight championship title in 2017 was the ultimate high point.

Holloway, who goes by the name Blessed, has now won 22 fights out of 29 total fights within the UFC over the course of 12 years. This most recent win was a great accomplishment.

Holloway stated that the BMF has gained its reputation for being associated with this, yet his primary goal is to alter the name to Blessed Man Forever.

"If that's not a remarkable moment, I'm not sure what is. This is the kind of action that cements your place in the annals of history."

After defeating Gaethje, Holloway claims he has multiple choices available, but his objective is to face the featherweight champion, Ilia Topuria.

Holloway mentioned that El Matador is trying his best to get away from the bull in the pen, but before anything else, he needs to take a break.

I have my stunning spouse and wonderful family here. We will relax and take it easy, my friend.
