    OMFG! Unreal.

    It was all Holloway until the last 50 seconds. They got up, and Holloway got stunned, after which he looked gassed.

    And he caught Holloway again.

    I know Max is the one with the higher workrate here, but it does not feel like his usual pace. Poirier is keeping him tamed with his power.

    Max’s work rate is amazing.

    I've been a fan of Dustin Porier since his inclusion In the showtime series 'Fightville'.. he's one of my favorite mma fighters but he lost a close fight tonite.

    Right man won, but two of the cards were a bit wide.

    I am kinda happy for Holloway, because for a moment it looked like he was going to go 0-3 again in a trilogy.

    A few announcements made when it comes to title fights.
    UFC 320 - October 4
    Ankalaev will defend against Pereira, in a rematch no one saw coming.
    Dvalishvili will defend against Sandhagen. This will be Merab´s 3rd fight this year, meaning that he will probably squeeze in 3 fights in 2026 as well, if he is able to keep going at this pace.

    UFC 321 - October 25
    Aspinal will defend against Gane. Good to see Aspinal finally get active, but Gane does not deserve this one.

    Crazy that Gane has only won three fights since getting dominated by Ng, and since then he will have also gotten two more shots at the title.

    That was crazy until I looked at ufcs heavyweight division, and he almost gets a shot because there is nobody else at the moment.

    Boxings heavyweight division is leagues above UFCs at the moment.

    Im kinda surprised Dana has allowed the division to get so stagnant.

    We’ve suffered enough this year to finally get some good cards.

    Jiri Vs rountree (number one contender fight) on the 320 card to add to the great main and co main event

    321 is rumoured to have Volkov vs almeida (number one contender fight) and rakic vs murzakanov as well.

    looking forward to it!
