Ever since Conor McGregor was stripped off of his title, it was Max Holloway who took hold of the featherweight division. After that, the Aussie Alexander Volkanovski toppled Holloway’s reign over the division. And not only did he beat ‘Blessed’ to win the title, but ‘The Great’ also defeated Holloway in an instant rematch.
@BlessedMMA wants to be the backup fighter for the fight he was originally scheduled to fight.🤦🏻♂️ so in other words…he was never injured. Just hoping he doesn’t have to fight me or fight me while I’m preparing for someone…but hey “if you ain’t cheating you ain’t trying”😆…NO

However, it wasn’t enough to convince fight fans of his superior skills. As some salty fans kept trolling Volkanovski over his reaction to Holloway trying to return as a replacement for his title defense at UFC 273.
