Filed under: Featured , News , UFC , Videos DETROIT – Max Holloway isn’t concerned about who is standing across the octagon at UFC 218, because he plans on taking out the entire featherweight division, anyway. Holloway originally was scheduled to fight Frankie Edgar in Saturday’s headliner, which takes place at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit and airs on pay-per-view-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass. “The Answer” suffered an injury less than a month from the event, though, and was replaced by Jose Aldo (26-3 MMA, 9-2 UFC). UFC 218 goes down almost exactly six months after Holloway battered Aldo for a third-round TKO to claim the 145-pound title at UFC 212 in June. Holloway admits a fresh foe in Edgar would’ve been nice, but he felt an Aldo rematch was going to happen regardless, so he’s not worried about the order of his challengers. Related Jose Aldo's plan is to beat Max Holloway at UFC 218, win trilogy and retire as champion “I got 250 cupcakes coming in (for my post weigh-in meal),” Holloway said at today’s UFC 218 open workout.
