Max Holloway sent a cold two-word message to those who would seek to overthrow him: Good luck.
The Hawaiian superstar carved up Jose Aldo in their rematch and authored a third-round technical knockout to retain the undisputed Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight title in the UFC 218 main event on Saturday at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. Holloway buried the Brazilian with punches 4:51 into Round 3, as he put his 12th straight win in the books and continued to paint himself as a historical figure at 145 pounds.
Even armed with his vaunted leg kicks, Aldo was no match for the champion.
