Gotta be up there with one of the best list of opponents ever. Not necessarily for wins but who’s he’s faced while still maintaining elite ranks for a long time.
Since he’s fighting at LW again, a Charles rematch might have been interesting but still not sure it makes sense to Justin or Charles as per title contention?
I don’t like this fight for Max, because Justin hits so hard, and Max is too dam tough. I feel like if this starts going Justin’s way, it could look a lot like the Ferguson fight, just because Max will not quit coming.
I don’t think Justin phase ever been taken out by a volume striker either.
I think Gaethje is gonna out the hurt on Max too, esp this version of Gaethje. Iirc Max still got hit a lot by Arnold Allen and even TKZ to an extent. His chin carries at but will not vs Gaethje if he takes the same kind of punches he takes at FW.
