"So he’s always sounded a bit punch drunk, I was getting kind of worried for him for awhile but my buddies would just say “he’s ok, he’s just Hawaiian”. I guess it’s just the accent."

Max Holloway has his eyes set on a title fight against Alexander Volkanovski

After proving himself against The Korean Zombie at UFC Singapore, Max Holloway has shown that he is still a force to be reckoned with in the featherweight division. The Hawaii native has his eyes set on the title and will push for a fourth fight against Alexander 'The Great' Volkanovski. During the post-fight press conference, he made his intentions very clear:

"I want to win the title back. I want to defend it a bunch of times. After we do that, maybe go up a weight or two to get more titles. We'll see what happens, anything's possible, all I gotta do is focus, keep one foot in front of the other and keep grinding."

Take a look at a clip from the press conference:

Max Holloway has fought Alexander Volkanovski three times for the belt and lost all three times. Volkanovski is one of the most dominant champions the UFC has ever seen but Max Holloway keeps improving with each fight and could pose a challenge to the champion, particularly considering the fact that their first two fights were very competitive.
