Gaethje, 25-4, defeated former UFC interim lightweight champion Dustin Poirier in July of last year to earn the BMF title. The scrap against Holloway will be his first defense. Holloway, 25-7, recorded two victories in 2023, after suffering his third defeat by Alexander Volkanovski.
Miller, 37-17, is coming off a submission victory over Gabriel Benitez this past Saturday at UFC Vegas 84. It was expected that the 40-year-old New Jersey native might face Paul Felder or Matt Brown at the April show.
Green, 35-15-1, looks to get back on the winning track after a knockout loss from Jalin Turner in December.
