It is difficult to imagine that over the course of 2019, the UFC will find a main event that creates the anticipation of a jaw-dropping, breath-stopping, highlight-making action fight in the way that Saturday night’s main event does. The UFC 236 headliner, pitting longtime featherweight champion Max Holloway against No. 3 lightweight Dustin Poirier for the lightweight interim championship, does not make a lot of sense as a pairing, yet most fight fans are thrilled at the prospect of two of the most offensively gifted fighters in the sport pairing off in their respective primes.
