It’s safe to say that the trilogy fought against. Alexander Volkanovsky not “another fight” for the ex-champion Max Holloway. Fans have seen a side of “The Blessed” that usually never shows up. The Hawaiian featherweight went all out with his bullshit speech at the UFC 276 press conference.
The UFC 276 pre-game press conference was one of the best press releases in a long time. All pay-per-view stars took to the stage to call out to fans and the media and play their mind games against their opponents on stage. While the usual suspects Israel Adesanya and Sean Strickland Former featherweight champion Max Holloway, who was the loudest talker last night, was surprisingly excited as he tried to launch hard attacks on his rival, Alexander Volkanovski, ahead of his old fights at the main event.
Max is never known for his bullshit. “Blessed” has always been very kind and respectful to his opponents and has never tried to play mind games. However, this trilogy battle seems to mean a lot more for Holloway than the previous two outings against the Australian fighter. Holloway put it all in with his microphone skills and tried to disperse Volkanovski on the microphone when the opportunity was presented.

Max Holloway is sick of everyone talking about taking ‘damage’
“The only thing I heard you talk about all week was ‘Damage’. We’re talking about damage here. Damage this. Damage this. “I’m known for taking a lot of damage, and he’s known for not doing it, let’s get it,” he said. Said a Holloway who was sick of hearing people talk about her damage-absorbing status in the UFC octagon.
Leading the fight, Alex talked about how people complimented Holloway for being the fighter who hit the hardest. Volkanovski told the audience that Holloway is known for absorbing many hits, and that his chin is this weekend. UFC 276.
Still, it was very strange to see Max trying to push his opponent, whom he had fought twice more. The Australian champion is currently 2-0 in the competition and is looking to hammer a nail in the coffin in the upcoming challenge. Holloway gave spectacular performances in the octagon to prove to the world that he is still the number one contender in the featherweight division. Do you think Holloway let emotions get him down for the trilogy?
