American Justin Gaethje will be able to achieve a quick victory over his compatriot Max Holloway at the UFC 300 tournament, fighter Artem Rofal, representing Alexander Shlemenko’s team, told .
The lightweight fight will take place on April 13 in Las Vegas at UFC 300. Former UFC interim lightweight champion Gaethje has 25 wins and four losses. In his last fight, Gaethje knocked out Dustin Poirier in the second round. Former UFC featherweight champion Holloway has 25 wins and seven losses, including a single stoppage loss to Poirier in 2012. In 2019, Holloway fought for the UFC interim lightweight title, losing to Poirier by unanimous decision.
Also within the framework of UFC 300, another lightweight fight will take place – Russian-Armenian fighter Arman Tsarukyan will meet with Brazilian Charles Oliveira. Tsarukyan has 21 wins and three losses during his MMA career, while Oliveira has 34 wins and nine losses.
— I will support Tsarukyan. If we consider the championship race, he is more competitive. Oliveira had already lost to Makhachev without question, and Tsarukyan’s revenge against Islam seems much more interesting. As for the other fight at UFC 300, I think Gaethje could stop Holloway. If that doesn’t happen, there will be a replay of the Holloway-Poirier fight. I am very interested in these two fights,” Rofal told .
The UFC lightweight championship belt is held by Russia’s Islam Makhachev, who defeated Oliveira and Tsarukyan.
