Max Holloway is no longer the only member of his family working on their boxing skills.

Less than two weeks out from Holloway's BMF title bout with Justin Gaethje on UFC 300, the former featherweight champion was seen on his wife's Instagram teaching her how to throw basic combinations. Upon viewing the video, fans praised Holloway's wife, Alessa Quizon, for her boxing skills.

Quizon joked in the caption that she told Holloway she could be as good as him if he trained her but doubled back and said that he keeps her "humbled." The caption read:

"Told my husband @blessedmma I could be as good as him if he held the mitts for me….lol just kidding! He keeps me humbled"

"She got hands too? Bruhh 🔥🔥🔥"
