Sean Shelby’s Shoes: What’s next for Max Holloway after UFC 308 knockout loss?

(ALSO SEE: Sean Shelby’s Shoes: What’s next for Ilia Topuria after UFC 308 title defense?)

A sight many people thought they would never see happened in the UFC 308 main event when Max Holloway was knocked out for the first time in MMA against Ilia Topuria.

Holloway (26-8 MMA, 22-8 UFC) failed to recapture the featherweight title from Topuria (16-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC) in Saturday’s headliner at Etihad Arena on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, when he was stopped by third-round knockout.

After the fight, Holloway displayed pure class and addressed the media about his fighting future. He hinted that a full-time move to lightweight could be on the horizon, and he is still officially in ownership of the BMF belt.

What is the correct next move for Holloway? Watch the video above for thoughts and analysis on his future after UFC 308.
