If you thought “CHAMA” would be the loudest thing at UFC 313, think again. Bruce Buffer just hit Alex Pereira with the legendary “The One and Only” introduction, something only Jon Jones and Conor McGregor had ever received. And just like that, the MMA world lost its mind.
But here’s the wild part, Max Holloway called it. Last month, he went on his YouTube channel and said, “I think Bruce Buffer should announce Alex Pereira as ‘The One, The Only.’ “He deserves it.”, replied The Knockout Report. Fast forward to right now, and it actually happened. Manifestation? Coincidence? You decide.

Fans, though, are split. “Only GOATs get that treatment” vs. “Industry plant, he’s not that level of superstar yet.” The debate is raging, and Poatan’s name is now in an exclusive club, whether you like it or not.
So, was this a well-earned coronation or just UFC hype at its finest? Either way, Max Holloway might need to start picking lottery numbers next.
