NEWARK, N.J. – The BMF title has picked up a lot of steam as of late.
The BMF title, which was introduced in November 2019 when Jorge Masvidal TKO’d Nate Diaz at UFC 244, was initially expected to be a one and done.
However, the belt was brought back almost four years later at UFC 291 when Justin Gaethje knocked out Dustin Poirier to claim the vacant title. Gaethje defended it against Max Holloway at UFC 300 in April, but was knocked out in the last second of an iconic battle.
