Max Holloway not chasing third Alexander Volkanovski clash: ‘I’m not gonna force someone to fight me’

Following his latest win, Max Holloway sees big things ahead even if that doesn’t include a third meeting with Alexander Volkanovski.

Holloway snapped a two-fight skid on Saturday, putting on a thrilling and dominant performance against Calvin Kattar in the main event of UFC Fight Island 7. It was an outing that was reminiscent of some of Holloway’s best and undoubtedly kept him in the thick of the featherweight title picture.

Unfortunately for Holloway, his two recent losses were both in championship bouts with Volkanovski, which would normally preclude a third meeting from happening again so soon.
