ABU DHABI – Max Holloway doesn’t think UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski is carrying himself like one. Ahead of their UFC 251 co-main event, Holloway (21-5 MMA, 17-5 UFC) presented a laid-back, nonchalant demeanor Tuesday during a virtual media day session. He shrugged off respectful criticism from Volkanovski’s coach , Eugene Bareman, and declined to interpret criticism Volkanovski (21-1 MMA, 8-0 UFC) recently has shot his way . An hour later, Holloway spoke to reporters, including MMA Junkie, at an in-person media scrum held on the “Fight Island” premises. Holloway still presented a calm demeanor but openly took exception with Volkanovski’s recent prods. “Did you guys interview him yet?” Holloway told MMA Junkie
