While many fighters have found time to train with select sparring partners and coaches in person, Max Holloway did nothing of the sort in preparation for his rematch with Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 251 .
The former featherweight champion recently claimed that the entirety of his camp was done virtually through Zoom, a platform used for video conferencing that has skyrocketed in popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic. At a virtual media day for UFC 251 on Monday, Holloway insisted that he isn’t trying to pull a fast one on his opponent — or anyone else — by downplaying his training.
