Max Holloway offered monster BMF title fight by UFC 311 star: ‘I would love to do that’

Confirming plans to make a lightweight division return in his next outing, Max Holloway has been offered a potential opponent for his return to 155lbs — with incoming UFC 311 feature, Renato Moicano offering to fight the Hawaiian for the symbolic BMF championship next.

Holloway, a former undisputed featherweight champion and the above-mentioned BMF gold holder, has been out of action since he headlined UFC 308 back in October, dropping his first-ever knockout defeat in a loss against unbeaten featherweight kingpin, Ilia Topuria.
