Who is Max Holloway's first wife?

The featherweight was once married to his former long-time girlfriend, Kaimana Pa'aluhi.

Pa'aluhi is a 29-year-old American model from Waianae, Hawaii. According to a report by THE SPORTS LITE, she always dreamed of being a model and got into the industry when she signed with Hawai'i Modeling Agency when she was just 16.

Apart from modeling, Pa'aluhi has also appeared in several films. Per a report by besttoppers.com, Holloway and Pa'aluhi tied the knot in 2012. However, after two years of marriage, the duo separated in 2014 and finally got divorced in 2017.

Holloway and his ex-wife share a son named Rush; the former couple is believed to have a cordial co-parenting setup.

Max Holloway is currently the No. 2-ranked contender in the UFC's featherweight division. Furthermore, he holds the No. 14 spot on the promotion's pound-for-pound ladder.

'Blessed' sports a stellar professional record of 25-7 and holds wins against the cream of the crop, including former featherweight title challenger Brian Ortega, promotional legend Jose Aldo, former lightweight champions Anthony Pettis, Frankie Edgar, and Charles Oliveira.

Max Holloway and his wife's online presence has massive appeal in the MMA community

Max Holloway often explores his creative side while creating content for his personal social media accounts. His wife Alessa Quizon gladly participates in many of those.

A few days after Holloway's impressive knockout win over Chan Sung Jung in August 2023, the couple took to Instagram and posted a picture of them recreating the Naruto-Kurama fist-bump scene from the anime series Naruto.

The post received a lot of praise from the fans but it was not nearly as witty as their Halloween costume where Holloway and Quizon swapped each others' clothes. While Quizon was dressed as a UFC champion, 'Blessed' sportingly donned a one-piece dress.

It turns out that Alessa Quizon can pack a punch as well. In a recent post on her Instagram, Quizon can be seen throwing punches as Holloway held the mitts.
