Before this win over Allen, Holloway was defeated by Alexander Volkanovski for the third time, but he got two wins in between those losses from Calvin Kattar and Yair Rodriguez. But when will the Hawaiian get back to action? And who will he face once he returns inside the Octagon?
When is Max Holloway’s Next Fight?
Max Holloway’s next opponent is yet to be determined as he is in a unique position in the division right now due to him beating almost everyone in the top five except getting past the champion. Potential next opponent for Holloway is Brian Ortega in a rematch. He also hopes that Yair Rodriguez beats Alexander Volkanovski in their upcoming unification bout so he can challenge again for the title.
