Justin Gaethje and Max Holloway put on one of the most memorable performances in the historic UFC 300 event. The fight ended with the Hawaiian getting his hand raised after a devastating 5th-round KO over “The Highlight”, making him the new BMF champ of the promotion.

The former BMF champ seemed to have tons of support coming his way from his fans and loved ones. Gaethje’s girlfriend Sophia Romano would post a picture of the duo after the UFC 300 event. However, there were a few people who attacked the UFC lightweight and his girlfriend for the post. But to everyone’s surprise, Adult actress Kendra Lust would come to the UFC lightweight’s defense.

Justin Gaethje’s girlfriend, Julia Romano posted a picture of the duo with the caption “All is good”, showing her support for her boyfriend comforting him on his loss against Holloway.

Kendra commented on the post writing, “One of the best to ever do it .. why wouldn’t he have such a beautiful girl by his side,” showing her love and support for the couple. However, an internet troll would respond to her comment trying to push the narrative that Gaethje had never won the division’s title. The 45-year-old actress would quickly respond by writing, “u clearly don’t know… also interim light heavyweight champ. Been fought the best of the best, never turns down a fight .. no need to respond.”

Kendra Lust did manage to shut down the internet troll despite making a small error as Gaethje won the interim UFC lightweight strap and not the interim light heavyweight strap. However, despite many people being worried about how Gaethje would be taking the loss, the UFC lightweight star seemed just fine in an interview with MMA Knockout.

Gaethje addresses his loss against Max Holloway

During an interview with MMA Knockout, the former BMF champion addressed his loss against Max Holloway. His loss to the Hawaiian had surely lessened his chances for fighting for UFC gold against Islam Makhachev. Gaethje certainly came in as a fighter with more to lose. However, when asked about the fight, Gaethje certainly had a more positive response.

When asked about the fight, Gaethje stated, “I mean, [it] was certainly a war… especially getting put to sleep like that. Yeah, but I’m not done. I’m gonna fight in the future – and that’s the only way that I fight. So even if I wanted to change how I fight, it’s really not possible. And so the next time I step in there, you know, the best live show on Earth.”
