It has become a consistent routine that whenever Max Holloway's fight draws near, Daniel Cormier playfully takes a humorous jab at him. This time, Holloway pointed out that Cormier had food on the commentary booth table while covering UFC 291.
In response, the former two-division UFC champion took a lighthearted approach, shifting the blame to his co-commentator Joe Rogan for the presence of snacks on the broadcast booth table. During a recent episode of the DC & RC show, Cormier revealed:
"Rogan brings these snacks every time bro. He brings this beef jerky, so we sit there and eat it. We eat popcorn, we sit there for seven and a half hours. I love that guy [Max Holloway], but that guy's constantly taking shots at me."

Max Holloway Criticizes Hawaii Government's Response to Maui Fires
Former UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway has expressed heartbreak and frustration over the Maui wildfires that devastated Lahaina town. He condemned the Hawaii government's response as inadequate, asserting that they've let down the people of Lahaina.
The Hawaiian native emphasizes the remarkable resilience and unity of the Hawaiian community in the face of tragedy. He also raises concern over developers attempting to purchase land from survivors whose homes were destroyed, describing it as a disregard for historical significance.
Speaking about the tragedy in a recent interview with TMZ Sports, Holloway stated:
“The state, the government, at so many levels, they just – I’m just straight up gonna say they failed the people of Lahaina. It’s kind of heartbreaking. When it felt like they were lollygagging, too, after everything happened, the Hawaiian people, the locals there are the ones that stood up and took on this responsibility.”
Holloway added:
“The amazing thing is how Hawaii can come together and pull through. The people of Hawaii are coming strong together. You’re seeing it. You see it through all the social media, everything. The Hawaiian people band together, making it for these Lahaiana guys and letting these guys know that we are here. We’re here to stay. Keep staying strong. I know it doesn’t look like there ain’t no end to this, but we are here for the long run for you guys.”
