Max Holloway is a certified BMF. And then some.

The former UFC featherweight champion defeated fan favorite Justin Gaethje at UFC 300 on Saturday, winning the promotion's ceremonial "BMF" belt in the wildest fashion possible. Seconds from a clear unanimous decision win, Holloway pointed to the center of the Octagon and goaded Gaethje to go full throttle to the buzzer.

The result was not just the clear Knockout of the Year, but perhaps the wildest knockout in the 31-year history of the UFC.
