Justin Gaethje vs Max Holloway BMF Title Preview | UFC 300
/

I’m super excited to see two of my favorite fighters back in the Octagon with Alex Pereira and Charles Oliveira. Alex is so dangerous and Charles has to be one of the most exciting fighters to watch. That being said, the best matchup is between Gaethje and Holloway, where two of the greatest strikers in UFC history are going toe to toe.

Saturday's Super-Stacked Fight Card Breakdown



Nick Lee – Penn State

Pick: Bo Nickal vs Cody Brundage



I just like watching Bo Nickal win. I will be tuning in specifically for Bo Nickal.

David Carr – Iowa State

Pick: Multiple



Super packed card, lot of great fights. Super excited to see Bo Nickal fight again and I’m a big Charles Oliveira fan. It’s going to be exciting. Pereira will be fun to watch as well. I think he will get it done.

I have to go with Oliveira vs Tsarukyan. A classic “coming of age” story set up for Arman against Do Bronxs, who has shown he is only getting better with time. I think it’s the highest-level fight on a star-studded card. Can’t wait to watch.



Ryan Deakin – Northwestern

Pick: Justin Gaethje vs Max Holloway



I’ve trained with Gaethje some during COVID and he’s an animal. I always love how much action there is in his fights; it’s always a brawl. I’m also looking forward to Nickal versus Brundage. I’m a big fan of Bo from college wrestling and excited to see him continue to take guys out.



Bo Bassett – Bishop McCort High School

Pick: Bo Nickal vs Cody Brundage

UFC 300 is going to be insane. In my opinion, it’s the most electrifying card of all-time. The amount of talent and skill is unfathomable. I’m extremely excited for not only the main card but also the prelims. From top to bottom it’s going to be interesting. The fight that I’m most excited for is the Bo Nickal fight. He is a force to be reckoned with. Hoping to watch him finish another man in round one.



Roman Bravo-Young – Penn State

Pick: Charles Oliveira vs Arman Tsarukyan/Bo Nickal vs Cody Brundage



Arman is my favorite fighter right now and Bo Nickal just because of the PSU tie and watching him turn into a star and work his way up.

Order UFC 300: Pereira vs Hill

Taye Ghadiali – Campbell

Pick: Bo Nickal vs Cody Brundage



Bo Nickal is one of the most exciting fighters. I want to see how far he can go. He’s starting and making a path for NCAA wrestlers. I want to see him keep winning and take the route he’s paving. Also, the Jamahal Hill fight. I want to fight light heavyweight, so these are the best of the best. I want to fight for that belt.



Kollin Moore – Ohio State

Pick: Justin Gaethje vs Max Holloway



For me, I’m looking forward to the Gaethje vs Holloway fight the most. They’re two veteran guys that always put on a show when they fight. There’s nothing better as a fan than watching two guys battle it out every round. For me, I’ll take that over an early knockout every time.
