Max Holloway will look to get a third crack at UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski when he meets a rising contender. Holloway (22-6 MMA, 18-6 UFC) takes on Yair Rodriguez (13-2 MMA, 8-1 UFC) in the main event of UFC Fight Night 197 , which takes place Nov. 13 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Former featherweight champion Holloway bounced back from two straight losses to Volkanovski in emphatic fashion when he put on a masterclass against the durable Calvin Kattar in the main event of UFC on ABC 1 in January. Holloway’s 447 total strikes landed and 445 significant strikes landed were both UFC single fight records. Rodriguez hasn’t competed since defeating Jeremy Stephens at UFC on ESPN 6 in October 2019.
