Earlier this week, UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway dropped jaws by nailing the “Bottle Cap Challenge<\/a>.” As is tradition with Internet challenges of this kind, Holloway then extended a followup challenge to somebody else. His pick was musician John Mayer.<\/p>\n

“Be curious my friends! #challengeaccepted#bottlecapchallenge\u00a0Passing this on to our guy\u00a0@johnmayer\u00a0\u2026. hey John if you can\u2019t complete this challenge\u00a0@erlsn.acr and I decided you have to come to Hawaii after your tour and kick it with us until you complete it!'”<\/em> – Max Holloway on Instagram.<\/p>\n

In a somewhat surprising twist, John Mayer promptly obliged Max Holloway on this challenge \u2014 and absolutely nailed it.<\/p>\n

He then directed a followup challenge to Hollywood action star Jason Statham, who certainly seems like the type to accept a challenge of this kind.<\/p>\n

“First @erlsn.acr\u00a0did it. Then\u00a0@blessedmma\u00a0followed, and challenged me. I now challenge\u00a0@jasonstatham.\u00a0#bottlecapchallenge”<\/em> – John Mayer on Instagram.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

At present Jason Statham has not attempted the Bottle Cap Challenge, but stay tuned to his Instagram to see if he does.<\/p>\n

Max Holloway is currently gearing up for a featherweight title fight with former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar. The bout will headline the UFC 240 card in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on July 27, which will also feature a featherweight showdown between former champion Cris Cyborg and surging contender Felicia Spencer.<\/p>\n

John Mayer, who is currently on tour, will be somewhere between Pittsburgh and New York when UFC 240 goes down, but perhaps we’ll see him cage-side at a Max Holloway fight at another time in the future. Are you surprised the musician was able to beat the Bottle Cap Challenge?<\/p>\n
