Max Holloway was trolled for his fight against Justin Gaethje

When Dana White announced the fight between Holloway and Gaethje for the BMF belt, the community came forward to call out White for his irresponsible matchmaking. Why, you ask? They thought the match would be one-sided and Holloway had no chance against Gaethje, who was seen as unstoppable. However, we all know what happened. Talking about this, Holloway added his two pieces on Joe Rogan’s podcast.

“It was like being under a gun, and pillow, pillow, Holloway, hands, Holloway. Is going to get killed, and I am going to be the Tony 2.0. Whatever. I was like, ‘Brother, you guys just watch.’ And I, that all their tones change. And now they’re making money off of me. I should go write them all. All money and be like, ‘Hey, brother, you owe me 10% of YouTube. Freaking.” said Holloway.
