Rogan's biggest mission in life: make everyone believe Holloway is the GOAT featherweight.

Can be wrong - but didn't he also believe he won vs Poirier?

Max have taken alot of damage lately. Ortega did catch him with some hard shots, Poirier rocked him constantly throughout the fight and Volkanovski landed bombs on him aswell. I like Holloway, but i'm afraid his chin will crack at some point - might be today.

2-0 Max. Closer round but the knockdown at the end sealed it.

Probably 3-1, but could be 2-2.

Close round again. Holloway decisively won the first 2 - and Volkanovski might have edged the last 2 by the slightest margin. 5 could be decisive.

Honestly closer to 4-0 than 2-2 in my mind. Probably 3-1 though with the first 3 to max

48-47 Max, but the way I was raised, that wasn't enough to take someone's belt.

1, 2 & 5 easy to score. 2-1 Max. 3 & 4 more or less toss ups. Everything from 4-1 Max to 3-2 Volk is acceptable - these judges scores might create some controversy.

Definitely didn’t think it was as close as a lot of you guys. Besides the last round I thought Holloway controlled the whole fight. Owned the centre the whole time.
