Max Holloway has received some advice from a UFC Hall of Famer following his KO loss to Ilia Topuria.
Holloway challenged Topuria for the featherweight gold in the UFC 308 headliner. "El Matador" ended living up to his word by knocking "Blessed" out in the third round. After the fight, Holloway told reporters that he pretty much has no choice other than to move up to lightweight."Believe You Me" podcast
"The time is done, that shipped has sailed, move on," Bisping said. "You're getting older, the weight cut's tougher. You've had a couple of losses, you almost became the champion again, you looked incredible against Justin Gaethje, you took his shots, you knocked him out cold.""There's a lot of fun fights for him at 155 pounds," Bisping said.
Holloway has yet to share the Octagon with Dan Hooker, but there's a good chance that will change if "Blessed" decides to make a move to 155 pounds permanent.If you use any quotes from this article, please leave an H/T to MMA Knockout on SI with a link back for the transcription.Fernando has over a decade of combat sports news writing experience.
