The former champion explains.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This Saturday, the UFC is hosting its 300th numbered event in Las Vegas. For this occasion, the American organization did things in a big way by offering a legendary card. On this one, we find Alex Pereira vs. Jamahal Hill in main event for the light heavyweight title. Other exceptional fighters, such as Charles Oliveira, Aljamain Sterling and Jiri Prochazka, will be there.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But one fight particularly excites fans: Justin Gaethje vs. Max Holloway, who will compete in less than 70 kg for the BMF title.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_12254\"  width=\"696\" height=\"391\"  data-origwidth=\"696\" data-origheight=\"391\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uREFaFUnFkc?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This clash promises to be bloody, and \u2018The Highlight\u2019 Gaethje arrives with very bad intentions. For this unique meeting, former UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski gave his opinion via his YouTube channel. \u2018The Great\u2019 gives the advantage to Max Holloway.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe can&#8217;t forget Max Holloway&#8217;s chin. It\u2019s an unbreakable chin\u2026 I tried to break it. Is Justin Gaethje the man to finish it? I said that a few times and I never got there,\u201d explained the Australian.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_50390\"  width=\"696\" height=\"391\"  data-origwidth=\"696\" data-origheight=\"391\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BvIE4i5AYvM?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Alex Volkanovski gives Max Holloway the lead<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thus, \u2018The Great\u2019 predicts a victory for Max Holloway.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Volkanovski is extremely well placed to talk about Holloway. In the past, the two men have faced each other 3 times for the featherweight title. Each time, &#8216;The Great&#8217; won the decision over the Hawaiian, without ever managing to finish him before the limit. These two athletes spent a total of 1 hour and 15 minutes together in the octagon. So they know each other like the back of their hand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For this fight at UFC 300, Max Holloway moves up a division and will fight at lightweight against Gaethje. In his career, &#8216;Blessed&#8217; has never been finished by KO or TKO: will Justin Gaethje be the first to achieve this feat?<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_20424\"  width=\"696\" height=\"391\"  data-origwidth=\"696\" data-origheight=\"391\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XPLK0MNp84c?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the fight Justin Gaethje vs. Max Holloway at UFC 300, Alexander Volkanovski has his favorite.
