Max Holloway will defend his BMF title against Charles Oliveira at UFC 326 in Las Vegas on March 7, the promotion announced Friday.

The bout will be a rematch of their 2015 featherweight encounter that ended prematurely due to an Oliveira injury.

Holloway captured the BMF championship by defeating Justin Gaethje by knockout at UFC 300 in April 2024. He's had one successful title defense since, defeating Dustin Poirier via unanimous decision at UFC 318 this past July.

Holloway also attempted to reclaim the UFC featherweight championship during his BMF title reign, but lost to Ilia Topuria by knockout at UFC 308 in October 2024.

Oliveira enters the matchup against Holloway coming off a victory against Mateusz Gamrot by submission at a UFC Fight Night card in October.
