Max Holloway moves up to the UFC’s lightweight division this Saturday night when he takes on Dustin Poirier for the interim 155-pound belt at UFC 236.
The featherweight kingpin is looking to become a dual-division belt holder in his fight with Poirier, with the winner to face the current lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov later this year. For Holloway, 2018 was a year to forget despite the fact he defended his featherweight belt in style against the very dangerous and previously undefeated challenger Brian Ortega in December last year at UFC 231.
