What does Max Holloway think about Paddy Pimblett potentially jumping the line for the first shot at new lightweight champion Ilia Topuria?

Topuria completed his ascent to two-division glory late last month when he headlined the UFC’s International Fight Week pay-per-view in Las Vegas. After bidding farewell to his reign as featherweight king, Topuria knocked out Charles Oliveira at UFC 317 to collect the vacant lightweight crown.

Prior to the Topuria loss, Holloway scored an iconic knockout of Justin Gaethje in his return to lightweight at UFC 300. This time, Holloway looked like a much more natural 155-pounder than he did when he lost to Poirier on short notice for the interim title at UFC 236.

Max Holloway, a true fan favorite in the UFC, recently received a surprise gift from the Toronto Blue Jays. He’s scheduled to headline UFC 318 against Dustin Poirier in a highly anticipated trilogy fight.

Dustin Poirier admits the reality of his retirement probably won’t hit him until after his fight against Max Holloway at UFC 318 is finished, but it’s almost impossible for him to avoid that subject.

Dominick Cruz would like to see Max Holloway change up one particular thing in his strategy heading into UFC 318.
