Jamahal Hill shares one-word reaction to Max Holloway wanting Mark Coleman to present BMF title at UFC 300

Max Holloway is set to compete against Justin Gaethje for ‘The Highlight’s’ BMF title at UFC 300, marking the second time he has made the move up to lightweight in his career.

The bout will be the third fight on the main card, coming before the co-main event of the evening, which is the women’s strawweight title fight between defending champion Zhang Weili and challenger Yan Xiaonan.

The BMF title is usually accompanied by a great deal of ceremony. For instance, Jorge ‘Gamebred’ Masvidal was presented with the belt by Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, the first person to earn the title, following his victory over Nate Diaz.

There has been much speculation about the potential appearance of a special personality at UFC 300 to present the belt to the winner. In an interview with Mike Bohn of MMA Junkie, Max Holloway shared his thoughts on the matter.

“The only correct answer is Mark Coleman… that guy’s a G. That’s a real-life BMF. That would be sick if he (wrapped the belt around the winner at UFC 300). It would be an honor to get him to do it.”

Jamahal Hill, the former light heavyweight champion who will be one-half of the main event for the night, has replied to Max Holloway’s proposal. In the MMA Junkie post’s comments section, he stated:

“1000%”

“Being a fighter means to me, I mean, when you think of fighters, when you hear the word fighter, To me, I think of gladiators. Guys in the olden days, fight to the death. I know we don’t do that nowadays, but I think of gladiators, ninjas, samurais, superheroes – that’s what I think of a fighter. A fighter is many things and can be many things… fighters are special people.”
