Holloway explained why he took the fight with Gaethje

“Oliveira and Makhachev are busy. I had recently won a big win over the “Korean Zombie” and was looking forward to fighting for the featherweight belt. There was talk about the BMF title and I liked that option. At 145 pounds, the next step may only be the title, but I’ve already fought Volkanovski three times.

Gaethje also needed an opponent, so I received an offer. It’s great to compete for the BMF belt, and also win it in the lightweight division. That's only £10 more than my category. So why not add such a name to your resume?” MMA Junkie quotes Holloway.
