It's one of the greatest finishes in MMA history.

Max Holloway delivered that and more at Saturday's UFC 300 event in Las Vegas, sparking Justin Gaethje with a crackling combination in the waning seconds of a fight that was already an instant classic.

And nobody thought it would happen like this.

Holloway and Gaethje, who met at lightweight on Saturday's stacked main card, were competing for the UFC's novelty "BMF" title, a special prize for fighters who leave it all in the cage every time they compete. While both men undoubtedly met that description and were expected to co-author an exciting contest, few people expected Holloway to win.
