"That moment didn't count as a knockdown, that's crazy. ESPN thinks no one has ever dropped me until now. That's bullshit - Gatji deserved that accomplishment. I wouldn't be me if I didn't admit that Gatji sat me on my ass. I remember being on the floor and thinking, "What did he hit me with? Fucking hell of a punch." I managed to get up, but my legs gave out at the moment of impact. So now I don't even know what counts as a knockdown," said Holloway in the podcast Joe Rogan.
Recall, Holloway beat Gaethje by knockout at the last second of the last round.
