Max Holloway doubles down on Alexander Volkanovski’s victory

Max Holloway wholeheartedly believes that ‘Volk’ is there to show why he is considered the ‘Great of the division. As per ‘Blessed’, Topuria’s overconfidence to clinch the belt without any challenge will be the reason for his downfall. While having a conversation at the UFC 300 presses, Holloway said, “There’s a reason they didn’t give me Ilia. They wanted to make him to this fight ( Volkanovski vs. Topuria).”

The guy really got the dog in him. You guys want to find out tomorrow. I think so he finishes it. Ilia, I’m with him. Before five”
