@@bart4543 Max is one of the most humble fighters next to Khabib, which he was willing to fight on short notice. I think you have your definition of coward wrong.
@@buckfuttler2877 you know as soon as he can flap his gums again he's gonna go right back to carrying that belt and calling himself the "real champ". Dude is delusional, he already wants to blame the loss on a bad stoppage.
I liked him more before the fight, after both the poirer fight and this one he blamed it on the judges and after this one he had nothing to say other than that the result didn’t go his way, no self-critique at all
oh yeah baby CHOO CHOO!! I think he should take a good long break from fighting and let the division playout for a good year then comeback. If they do an automatic rematch assuming Max wins its gonna be 1-1 then we have to have a trilogy fight and that will throw the division off
Let's be honest guys. Mini Blessed stole the show. Such an adorable and cool kid ! Look at him !! You can see that he's going to be a star sooner or later. Beautiful father and son connection.
@@roidhead8911 You can see it by the way he behaves and his facial expression while Max talks. Maybe he wouldn't be a fighter but definetly could be in a movie or stuff like that.
Idk why i even care but for some reason i admire how Mini blessed didnt cry this time! Good parenting with Max Holloway and his team the kid seemed happy win or lose his dads still the GOAT
I love Max, but I don't see how he thought he won that, he had no answer for the Leg Kicks, and was getting tagged. He needed to let his hands go more, and check those leg kicks early, him and his coaches were too content sitting on the outside and Volkanovski was more than happy to stay on the outside and chew his legs up. Max will be back, but he needs to graduate from the Diaz Brothers Academy of checking leg kicks and let his hands go.
Agree, I had some arguments in the stream chats about it. If anyone watched that fight and thought Max won then it just speaks volumes to their own fight iq's. Max seems to be suffering from the same symptoms as Connor, where they began their careers with such a versatility and a well-rounded arsenal, and both have adopted a style where they feel the need to try and win fights strictly boxing. He could have made this a much more competitive fight, if as you said, he checked the legs kicks and added a bit more variety to his gameplan. I think he fell in love with caving in Ortega's face too much.
I think this fight was a lot closer than most are saying, the leg kicks were working so well for Volkanovski and he was tagging Max with some good counters. However, Max I think took the final rounds by winning the boxing exchanges and landing bigger strikes. So while Volk probably won it is facts that the judge who went 50-45 (I think) was on crack.
He is the most entertaining and charismatic MMA fighter we have ever been blessed to witness. Everybody around him is blessed. He's teaching Rush how to grow and mature during the ups and the downs.
Loved the fight, love both of those guys. They were on the brink of one of those too-many-smile-break fights though. Great fight though can’t to see them fight again
In fight adjustment and adaptation is necessary the longer you go and the more people study and game plan for you. You have to have things in your back pocket and be ready to contend with new looks. Either way Max is a successful champion.
He’s my favourite fighter of all time across all combat sports I’m a bigger boxing nut than MMA but my god this man is how all sportsmen should act he’s a class act and mini blessed is a superstar himself what a cool little dude!
I've liked him from pretty early on. He was tough, but if you would have told me he would ascend to the top of the division and be in talks of the best ever, I would have asked you to pass the bong. Add to that he's a great father, choo choo I'm onboard thr Blessed Express.
Yup. That's why he needs to start lifting heavy weights and move up to the next weight class. Dude looks way too skinny. He did everything at 45 already.
Kalash Nikov that won’t make a difference. Max has slow twitch muscle fibers like Tony and the Diaz brothers. They throw a lot a volume, and their cardio is insane. People like Conor have fast twitch muscle fibers, meaning they don’t throw a lot of volume but they can KO you with one punch, they sacrifice their cardio for that. That’s why Conor has all of these round 1 and round 2 KOs and why his longer fights end in a decision or a loss.
Im a huge Max fan, but maybe theres something to be said for watching your opponents fights, which Max has said he doesn't do.

Nice one
Daddest man on the planet
@@FUB. nice
Lol
Max is such a great human being, even after the lose he’s in good spirits eating ice cream with his son. Gotta love it
He is a coward. Both of his last two loses he blamed it on the judges. Both fights he clearly lost.
@@bart4543 fights in a cage for a living against killers , but yeah... he's a coward , cool story bruh

ARE YOU OVULATING
Mini blessed helping to clear his dad's plate was such a cool move
Praise to his son, his manners are impeccable.
Elbows on the table are not impeccable manners my friend lol
Really??? You went with impeccable?
Rush is sweet, but I wouldn't call his manners impeccable, absolutely not..
yep. saw his daddy lose his belt and didnt cry in the ring. stoic kid! raised well!
Buck Futtler he cried when Dustin beat him and Shaq talk to him
gonna be weird seeing max without a belt
gonna be SWEET to see colby without his belt though!
Waani Waaani DC is a cheater
Probably gets an immediate rematch

S U R V I V E Nah it was good. Colby wasn’t defending, like 15 seconds left in the round, broken jaw. It was warranted
Mini max gonna take the revenge for his dad!
Max Won. As did Aldo. The vilest adjudication of recency
@@stevegreusome9961 Don't know about Max but aldo? Yes he got rob and also usman was gonna get rob thank God he knocked colby. Terrible judging
THORFINN!!!
Mini blessed is gonna grow up and beat up and old volkanovski to get revenge for his dad
mini max vs mini future alex!
WE STILL ON THE BLESSED EXPRESS MAX. YOULL BE BACK.
I liked him more before the fight, after both the poirer fight and this one he blamed it on the judges and after this one he had nothing to say other than that the result didn’t go his way, no self-critique at all
Naw he is delusional how can he possibly think he won that fight

Max's energy is infectious, cool dude
Mini Max is adorable, he was peeping his dad's ice cream like yooooo, I need more of that lol.
Was that ice cream? Lol I couldn't figure out what they were eating
Austin Arnold no cupcakes today son
He moved in when his dad was getting asked about "the distance"
Max illuminati
3:58 lil Blessed lookin for the reporter. hahaha
When he see him it so funnt
Let's be honest guys. Mini Blessed stole the show. Such an adorable and cool kid ! Look at him !! You can see that he's going to be a star sooner or later. Beautiful father and son connection.
Rush is stealing shine on the daily
Why is he going to be a star? Most UFC fighters have kids, nothing special about that.
@@roidhead8911 You can see it by the way he behaves and his facial expression while Max talks. Maybe he wouldn't be a fighter but definetly could be in a movie or stuff like that.
4:34 He's eating everything I've worked for... Classic
Rush “Just wait until I KO everyone” Holloway
Rush is gonna ko Alex’s kid in the future
If you got a child like that, you're a champion in every division in every way.
2:44 the way maxs son looks at him after max eats a massive spoon full of his icecream lol that kid is the best
6:06 Max's son is so funny. Such a figure. hahahaha...
Mini blessed is a boss. Didn't cry this time. Respect.
I absolutely love the example Max sets for fathers. It's definitely had an impact on me.
kinG iZZy Dustin is a fantastic father too
@@adb8003 yeah for sure. Much respect to him
6:04 might be my favourite press conference moment of all time 🤣
Win or lose. Max calls out DC 😂
2:46 "Mini" looking like I guess the homies can't have none... "it is what is"
I love Max but never underestimate a lil guy with the head of a 6'4" bloke 🇦🇺
That is not fair. 6'6 at least...
What a fake account
lol
@Bail what about john lineker?
Bigfoot Silva, now that's a big head
How can people hate Max Holloway?? Stay blessed
Idk why i even care but for some reason i admire how Mini blessed didnt cry this time! Good parenting with Max Holloway and his team the kid seemed happy win or lose his dads still the GOAT
Knew Alex would win this fight. Max is a great guy and so humble. The epitome of a role model and still the greatest to ever grace that division.
Gotta love the true champions, always humble even after defeat
Max should not hang his head on this loss. We all love him
Lil MAX make that ice cream look like everything an a half 🍴🍧😂😂

Max will be back, but he needs to graduate from the Diaz Brothers Academy of checking leg kicks and let his hands go.
Exactly, he sounds pretty delusional saying he thought he won.. surprised me to hear him say that
The Super Hero Villain max got schooled in every round smh he just wasn’t the max we all know but no doubt he will be back to his best.

This division is tough, Zabit, Yair, Korean Zombie, Kattar... Hope Max gets back to a title shot
You can say they all tough, but deep down we all know they ducking mini blessed.
4:00 when someone you’re not close with calls you by your nickname
Rush’s reaction 😂
@Taha your dad
Lol maxs son is so his mini me. He looks around to see 2hose talking he cant find him then he's like Ohhh there he is haha
Positive vibes but also a prideful champ but a respectful one ......rare
Crazy how he thought he won rds 2 to 5, they weren't blow out rds by any stretch but volkan was getting the better of him in almost every one.
For me it was a draw. Round 1,2 are 10-9's to max, round 4,5 were 10-9's to alex and round 3 a 10-10
@@idrial931 10-9 must, draw only happens with 10-8s and point deductions i believe

Happens when you get asked the same question 4 times in one interview.
Blame the boring reporters

Max Holloway Truly Knows That He’s Blessed. You Can See By The Way He Carries Himself.
Yes wish more guys would be this close with there kids an mini keeping his dad in check.
Max' lil man is the coolest
lol this was the greatest post fight interview of all time...max is such a cool dude and his kid was awesome as well...
respect
A good dad don't wanna disappoint their kid.
My mans got robbed this time I definitely had max 3-2
I know it's well stated but this man is an absolute legend!
Stay Blessed Max. This just makes things more interesting when you come back
Best personality in all of mma. What a great father. You can never take that title. The best is blessed.
He didn't do anywhere near enough!
Hunter Gatherer so what...max is happy he’s healthy he has his son and like he said he’s only 28 he’ll be back
There is a few guys that all ways put on a show and their stock dill not go down no matter the results . Respect Max !

Such a role model for his son and for everyone who watches him
@Andy for alot of people fighters are role models. And even tho hes a fighter hes still a very humble guy.
His kid is super cute and very comfortable in front of the media.👍
Dc was so biased in his commentary.. at the end he’s like “ man I have no idea who won that” like come on
The main event was even going into the 5th 2 and 2
@It is what it is main event could easily have been 2-2, nothing like the holloway fight
GigaLance I’m talking about the co main event.. which volkanovski imo clearly won the fight if not every round

Fun fact: everyone only clicked on the video for mini Holloway
Mini Max brain freeze at 1:14😂
Awww mini blessed ❤️
Love Max bro he's such a good person and him having ice cream with his son just shows what kinda person he is... Best champ ever
I really hope max and Covington come back on top
Holloway? Definitely but Covington? I'm sure he'll be back after he finds his jaw.
What’s to like about Covington? Please explain cos I just can’t comprehend how he has any fans...
Liam Morgans hes entertaining
Liam Morgans he fought his heart out tonight he definatly won me over .
Colby just insulted a dead man in public for the family to hear it, then got his jaw broken by a wrestler.. doesn’t take much to impress ya’ll does it
He had a great run. Thanks for all your contributions Max.
Marty fakenewsman wants that kids hairline
I didn’t watch Cause I know he was losing from the first 😔 max will be right back there for the belt
Max is great fighter and even better dad
Lovely boy 👦 made daddy forgot about the fight drama 👏🏽👏🏽
He has such a big heart.. Humble in defeat
I am sure Mini gonna show up in future. He is processing the whole process. Watch out.

Hard to say if we seeing the same Max since his Aldo fights ..
Great clip. I would add that a loss is only a defeat if you allow it to be.
Bro when Max's son got up and was this guy got more icecream then "bruh"
He has one of the coolest son's on earth.
The fight wasn't even close. Squidward is delusional these days.

Max got clearly beat but I believe adjustments can be made and he can come back stronger.
his sons so sweet haha
One of the best humans in the UFC
I gave Alex 1,2,3 and Holloway 4,5... thought by the end Holloway had him figured out
