Morning Report: Alexander Volkanoski on Max Holloway: ‘It would be silly to do a rematch right away’

Two weeks ago, at UFC 251, Alexander Volkanovski successfully defended his title with a split decision win over former champion Max Holloway. As many split decisions are, the win was controversial, with a number of fans, media members, and even Dana White believing Holloway had done enough to reclaim the featherweight title. Controversial or not though, Volkanovski is now official 2-0 versus Holloway and the featherweight champion is not looking to make it 3-0 anytime soon.

Speaking with ESPN recently, Volkanovski discussed the. hard-fought win over Holloway and shot down the idea that the two men run it back for a third time.
