Max Holloway says Justin Gaethje hits harder than Ilia Topuria:

“When I was in there, I did not feel like this guy [Ilia] hit so much harder. But the guy must hit hard…

But comparing his punch. When I fought Gaethje, I felt some things. I felt that Gaethje hits hard and Gaethje kicks hard. When Ilia when he hit me, nothing was like, ‘oh man, he hits hard or whatever’.”
