Former champion Max Holloway had an unsuccessful attempt at the UFC featherweight title against Alexander Volkanovski at the co-main event of UFC 251 this week. Max Holloway significantly outpointed Volkanovski for the primary three rounds. However, ‘The Great’ bounced back in the final two rounds and retained his UFC gold. The judges scored the contest 48-47, 48-47, and 47-48 and awarded Alexander Volkanovski the win.

However, numerous fight fans and MMA veterans have already voiced their disapproval towards the decision, claiming that Max Holloway has been robbed of his victory. Alexander Volkanovski still has the featherweight title around his waist. Despite that, the Australian has been severely criticized by fight fans and netizens all over the internet.

Meanwhile, the entire scenario took a worse turn after a media person reportedly received threat calls for citing that the result of the match was fair. However, ‘Blessed’ displayed sportsmanship by standing against the stunt and claiming that he is not okay with it.

In the third tweet, Holloway revealed that the “Blessed Era“ continues. Fans can take this to mean that the Hawaiian is still hungry to step inside the octagon. Even though he is currently on a two-fight losing streak, Holloway is still one of the best 145 lbs fighters from the existing featherweight roster.

Meanwhile, Dana White has also said that he is looking forward to line up Holloway opposite Volkanovski for one more time. So, fight fans could potentially witness one of the biggest rubber contests in the history of UFC featherweight division.
