Max Holloway calls for BMF fight with Dustin Poirier, Justin Gaethje after UFC 291: ‘I wanna throw my name into the hat’

Former undisputed featherweight champion, Max Holloway expects a “crazy” fight between former interim lightweight championship holders, Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje at UFC 291 later this week – and has stunningly offered to fight the victor of the BMF title rematch in the future.

Holloway, the current number one ranked featherweight contender, is slated to make his return to the Octagon in the main event of UFC Fight Night Singapore in August, taking on former two-time title challenger, Chan Sung Jung.

The Hawaiian has already featured earlier this year, landing a unanimous decision victory over the streaking, Arnold Allen at UFC Fight Night Kansas City back in April – retaining his status as the number one ranked featherweight contender.
