After the recent fight between Max Holloway and Charles Oliveira, some fighters believe the belt didn’t live up to its reputation.

Even Ben Askren weighed in with a surprising suggestion — putting special rules on BMF fights, including limiting takedowns to keep the fights exciting. Chael explores whether the BMF concept should be changed, modified, or even stripped altogether… and why shortening fight time could actually make BMF fights far more exciting. But there’s a bigger point. Despite all the criticism, the BMF belt may actually be doing exactly what it was designed to do: Get people talking. #UFC #BMF #MaxHolloway #AlexanderVolkanovski #ChaelSonnen #MMA Volkanovski calls to strip the BMF belt – 00:00Why Volk’s opinion carries weight – 00:15Ben Askren’s surprising BMF rule idea – 00:30Why the Holloway vs Oliveira fight disappointed some fans – 01:00The boxing strategy of “just win tonight” – 01:40What actually defines a BMF fighter – 02:00Chael’s idea to shorten BMF fights – 02:25Why longer fights become more boring – 02:50Why Jake Paul fights are shorter – 03:10Why BMF rules could be different – 03:30Why the belt still creates huge discussion – 03:50The strange rules around interim championships – 04:10How interim belts sometimes become undisputed – 04:40Why the BMF debate may never be settled – 05:10 Bad Guy Inc merch now available at Click here to subscribe: Follow me on IG: Follow me on Twitter: Follow me on Threads
