Max Holloway pointing to the middle of the ring & then knocking out Justin Gaethje with 1 second left is still one of the coldest things in UFC history 😤
"He protected the halflings and fought the Uruk-Hai is what he did! He died for his King Aragorn is what he did! And in this house, Boromir is a hero!"

Today, I’m officially announcing my retirement from the UFC. This decision comes after a lot of reflection, and I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the journey I’ve experienced over the years.
From the first time I stepped into the Octagon, my goal was to push the boundaries of what was possible in this sport. Becoming the youngest UFC champion in history, defending my title against some of the best fighters in the world, and sharing unforgettable moments with fans across the globe—these are memories I’ll cherish forever. I’ve faced incredible highs and some tough lows, but every challenge has taught me something valuable and made me stronger, both as a fighter and as a person.
I want to thank the UFC, Dana, Hunter, Lorenzo, God, my family, coaches, teammates, and all the fans who have stood by me through every chapter. Your unwavering support and belief in me have been my foundation. To my fellow fighters, thank you for bringing out the best in me and for the respect we’ve shared inside and outside the cage.
As I close this chapter of my life, I look forward to new opportunities and challenges ahead. MMA will always be a part of who I am, and I’m excited to see how I can continue to contribute to the sport and inspire others in new ways. Thank you all for being part of this incredible journey with me. The best is yet to come.

That’s the problem with some young men, you think your last outcome is your legacy. That’s why when many of you fall short, you can’t find the strength to return.
But here’s the truth: your legacy isn’t your last move. Legacy is what no one can take from you. It’s built over time, not defined by a single win or loss.
If you’re reading this, your legacy is far from over. We wake up each day with a chance to build, to add, to rise. Make yours beautiful.
Huge congratulations to @PCunningham27 and @ElonSportVision for bringing home some hardware. Big S/O to @ElonRadio and @hgbradey for their greatness on the broadcast.
But we have to show love to @LouroJake for making the play and providing the award winning moment for the team!
