If things keep going this way for Max Holloway, he may have to start suing MMA judges for emotional distress.
“Blessed” was actually in good spirits at the UFC 245 post-fight press conference in Las Vegas on Saturday shortly after losing a unanimous decision to Alexander Volkanovski that ended his streak of three consecutive featherweight title defenses and 14 straight wins at 145 pounds. But Holloway joked that after ending up on the wrong end of the scorecards for the second time this year (the other being a loss to Dustin Poirier this past April in a bout for an interim lightweight championship), he should know better than to rely on the judges.
