It’s been quite the journey for Max Holloway since he lost his belt to Alexander Volkanovski in December 2019. To that point, Holloway had garnered enough accolades and put on enough stellar performances to have his name tossed around in “greatest featherweight of all-time” discussions. Still just 28 years old at the time, Holloway had bested José Aldo twice, finished an undefeated challenger in Brian Ortega and taken out former champions Anthony Pettis and Frankie Edgar while amassing a 13-fight winning streak.
