Defending his BMF belt for the first time. But who will “Blessed” be facing in New Orleans? Also Read: UFC Tonight – Get a look at the upcoming UFC schedule Max Holloway next fight opponent options?

UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski has offered his expert prediction for the UFC 318 main event between Max Holloway and Dustin Poirier. This coming Saturday, Max Holloway returns to the Octagon for the first time since his UFC 308 loss to Ilia Topuria when he defends his BMF title against Dustin Poirier in the UFC 318 main event.

Max Holloway is no stranger to creating viral moments whenever he sets foot in the octagon, but it’s hard to deny his last-second knockout over Justin Gaethje at UFC 300 is probably his most memorable.

Max Holloway thinks the final moments of UFC 318 could be just as chaotic as his previous BMF fight. Holloway and Dustin Poirier are poised to clash for a third and likely final time at UFC 318, with Poirier eyeing retirement in front of a home crowd in New Orleans.

Max Holloway says Ilia Topuria is one of the biggest pound-for-pound punchers in the UFC. But is the hardest hitter he's ever fought? Not quite, says the BMF champion.
