The knockout made for a legendary moment in 'Blessed's career that resulted in a roaring ovation from the fans in attendance.

Is Max Holloway challenging Ilia Topuria for the UFC featherweight championship next?
It doesn't appear as though fans will have to speculate too much as Max Holloway is believed to be the next challenger for Ilia Topuria's UFC featherweight championship.
After his incredible knockout win over Justin Gaethje, the attention immediately turned to a potential Topuria vs. Holloway title fight. 'El Matador' recently dethroned Alexander Volkanovski to win the title, while 'Blessed' defeated the No.2 ranked lightweight to capture the 'BMF' title.
Topuria took to his X account to congratulate Holloway on his win and mentioned that he will share a similar fate to Volkanovski when they meet inside the octagon. He wrote:
"Congrats on your performance Max. Respect your story and everything you achieved with a beautiful family. Hopefully we gonna share the octagon before the end of the year and trust me you gonna feel something that you never felt before. I will be the first one to take your lights out. Philippians 4:13."
