Max Holloway accepts Charles Oliveira's BMF callout, says March is 'very possible' for lightweight showdown - CBS Sports

  • Next year, Charles Oliveira agreed to Max Holloway's conditions for a potential BMF clash, saying he would accept fighting at Holloway's home or anywhere outside Brazil.
  • Earlier this year, Charles Oliveira rebounded with a second-round submission of Mateusz Gamrot at UFC Rio, just 105 days after his knockout loss to Ilia Topuria.
  • On his Kick stream, Max Holloway accepted Oliveira's callout but said he's still recovering from a hand injury, won't fight in 2025, and doubts waiting for June 14, 2026.
  • The rematch would revisit their 2015 UFC Saskatoon meeting that ended early when Oliveira was injured and Holloway won, and it could put the ceremonial BMF title on the line as a title eliminator.
  • Both fighters stand as former champions and major PPV stars, with a win boosting Oliveira's Hall of Fame resume while Holloway defends the BMF division.
