Max Holloway Dismisses Jean Silva’s White House Callout as Oliveira Pushes for BMF Rematch

Social media exchanges are driving early jockeying for the 2026 White House card, with official matchmaking still unconfirmed.

Overview

  • On a KICK livestream, Max Holloway mocked Jean Silva’s proposal for a BMF fight at the White House, saying Silva is "still concussed" after his recent loss to Diego Lopes.
  • Jean Silva had posted on X that a BMF bout with Holloway at the White House would be his dream fight, despite being stopped by Lopes in the second round last month.
  • A clip of Holloway’s reaction spread on social media, and Diego Lopes amplified it on X while laughing at the idea of Silva facing Holloway.
  • Fresh off submitting Mateusz Gamrot at UFC Rio, Charles Oliveira publicly called for a BMF rematch with Holloway, a matchup Dana White has indicated interest in.
  • Holloway has signaled a move toward lightweight after defending the BMF belt against Dustin Poirier, and reports tie him most strongly to Oliveira while no White House bouts are announced.
