“Damage accumulated over rounds, forcing the champion into a defensive approach”

At the White House UFC event UFC Freedom 250, Justin Gaethje produced a shock result by defeating Ilia Topuria to win the undisputed lightweight title.

Gaethje entered the fight as the underdog but quickly made it competitive with aggressive pressure and powerful striking. Topuria started well and had moments of success, especially with body shots, but he struggled to maintain control as the fight progressed.

From the middle rounds onward, Gaethje began to take over, landing clean and damaging shots that slowly broke down the champion. The momentum shifted heavily in his favor as Topuria started to absorb more punishment.

In the fourth round, Gaethje’s continued offense caused serious damage, forcing Topuria’s corner to stop the fight before the fifth round, with the champion unable to continue.

The victory gave Gaethje his first undisputed UFC title and marked one of the biggest upsets in recent UFC history, on a night held at the White House South Lawn.

In the co-main event, Ciryl Gane defeated Alex Pereira by second-round stoppage in their interim heavyweight title fight.

“This victory adds the BMF title to Oliveira’s growing list of UFC accomplishments”

Charles Oliveira defeated Max Holloway by unanimous decision to win the BMF (Baddest Motherf****r) title at UFC 326. The fight took place at T‑Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, in front of a packed crowd. All three judges scored the fight 50‑45 in favor of Oliveira, highlighting his dominance throughout the match.

Oliveira controlled the fight from start to finish with superior grappling and ground control. He executed multiple takedowns and kept Holloway on the canvas for most of the five rounds. Holloway tried to fight back with striking and submissions but could not change the momentum. Oliveira’s tactical approach and patience frustrated Holloway and prevented him from gaining any real advantage.

This win adds the BMF title to Oliveira’s accomplishments and strengthens his position as a top contender in the UFC lightweight division. Holloway, the former BMF champion, relinquishes the belt after his loss but remains one of the top fighters in the division.

After the fight, Oliveira praised Holloway for being a tough opponent, while Holloway promised to come back stronger. Fans noted that the fight, although grappling-heavy, showcased Oliveira’s dominance, strategy, and ability to control a high-stakes championship bout.

Former UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway wants a rematch against Charles Oliveira. Their first fight took place in August 2015. Holloway won after Oliveira suffered an injury in the first round, leaving many fans feeling the matchup was unfinished.

Oliveira has called out Holloway for a rematch. He suggested it could be his final fight, ideally for the BMF title. Holloway agreed but said the fight must happen on his terms, specifically not in Brazil. He emphasized that location and timing matter and wants the fight to be fair and exciting.
