One of the toughest things for a person to admit is “I don’t know.”
The next hardest thing to say is, “I’m definitely going to lose that game.” This is why many individuals outside the realm of mixed martial arts (MMA) – like these misinformed tough guys – think they can take on the world’s top fighters. That’s the reason I’m here. It’s more significant.
Add former NFL star Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson to the list of those who share this belief.
“Watch out, I’m going to hit Max Holloway in the jaw, don’t doubt me on that.” Johnson shared with podcast host and fellow NFL personality Shannon Sharpe., I couldn’t help but chuckle. “I’m ready to face him, what’s there to question? I’m built for this!”
Here are the clips broken down:
Ochocinco wants to spar with Max Holloway
Ocho: “If I were to fight Max, when do you think he would beat me in the octagon?”
Ankh: “30 seconds”
Man, I enjoy this show.

Sharpe envisions a swift finish by “Blessed” within half a minute at the most.
The heroic fighter from Hawaii just claimed the “Knockout of the Year” title by defeating Justin Gaethje during the UFC 300 pay-per-view (PPV) event held in Las Vegas last weekend, and now has his sights on a future fight. He is likely to vie for the title against Ilia Topuria in the latter part of this year.
Till then, don’t count on Holloway sparring with Johnson, or any other opponent for that matter.
