Matches to Make After UFC Kansas City

UFC on ESPN 44 was headlined by arguably one of the best free Ultimate Fighting Championship events in a long time, a massively important featherweight showdown between legendary former champion Max Holloway versus tremendous upstart Arnold Allen. Holloway lost his third and likely final shot at UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski in July of last year. However, one shouldn't forget that their second fight could have easily gone either way, with some believing Holloway should have won a split decision. And between those two title challenges, Holloway delivered a horrific, one-sided beatdown to top contender Calvin Kattar for five rounds, and also edged out current interim champion Yair Rodriguez in an entertaining contest.
