Poirier gave a forecast for the fight between Gaethje and Holloway

UFC lightweight Dustin Poirier gave his forecast for the upcoming fight between Justin Gaethje and former champion of the organization in featherweight f Max Holloway.

“I think I would put my money on Max. I see a lot of people saying Justin will have a size advantage, but Max is a big guy. He and Gaethje are about the same weight. I believe timing, distance work and resilience will ensure Max wins. It’s a coin toss, but if I had to bet, I would bet on Max,” Poirier said.

The confrontation between Justin Gaethje and Max Holloway will take place on the night of April 14 in Las Vegas as part of the UFC 300 anniversary tournament.
