Max Holloway on trilogy with Alex Volkanovski: ‘I’m not gonna force someone to fight me’

Max Holloway won’t chase a trilogy fight with Alex Volaknovski if the featherweight champion is not interested in fighting him.

This past weekend at UFC Fight Island 7, Holloway defeated Calvin Kattar by a one-sided unanimous decision. The win snapped a two-fight losing skid for Holloway, with both of those losses being against the current champion Volkanovski.

Talking at the post-fight press conference, Holloway discussed his fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov that fell through in 2018 and the Volkanovski trilogy.

“We’ll see what happens,” Holloway said. “Even with Khabib, Khabib is saying he wants something that’s super interesting.
