I missed the previous years. Did Max Holloway ever get a nomination?

Ngannou, unless Volkswagon beats Cormier, then I'll give it to him even if Nag beats Miotic, as I think beating Cormier is a bigger feat.

I don't recall. So much of this is about timing. When guys blow up and how much of it seems to happen in any one year. Holloway may have been punished by being a relatively proven commodity before he finally broke through.
