In the world of mixed martial arts, Justin Gaethje has been reflecting on his BMF title fight against Max Holloway. Gaethje experienced a knockout loss in the final round of the fight at UFC 300, which many consider an exceptional MMA battle. Holloway claimed the title from Gaethje, prompting the former champion to analyze what could have gone wrong during the match.

During an interview on The Dan LeBatard Show, Gaethje expressed his thoughts on the fight. “I think if I made a mistake, the biggest mistake was not realizing or understanding through the camp how much danger I was in. I know that was a mistake now,” he said. Gaethje acknowledged that he underestimated the level of threat posed by Holloway, which may have affected his performance.

Gaethje’s history in UFC title fights is notable. He won the UFC interim lightweight title by defeating Tony Ferguson at UFC 249, earning a chance to face Khabib Nurmagomedov for the lineal championship. Despite a valiant effort, Gaethje was submitted by Nurmagomedov in the second round of their UFC 254 bout. Following a victory over Michael Chandler at UFC 268, Gaethje earned another opportunity at the lightweight title, which resulted in a first-round submission loss to Charles Oliveira at UFC 274.

After a rebound victory over Rafael Fiziev at UFC 286, Gaethje found himself competing for the BMF title. His second encounter with Dustin Poirier at UFC 291 saw him become the second BMF champion in UFC history, thanks to a second-round head kick that secured his victory. Gaethje’s journey through various weight classes and title fights has solidified his reputation as a formidable competitor in the UFC.
