Max Holloway expressed that he believes the UFC was "shelling" Ilia Topuria away from him, suggesting they orchestrated his matchups to avoid a fight against Topuria.
Discussing Ilia Topuria's victory over Alexander Volkanovski, Holloway acknowledged the importance of that win while questioning the UFC's matchmaking decisions in the featherweight division.
Holloway aims to prove why the UFC kept him from facing Topuria when they meet at UFC 308, stating, "I'm gonna show exactly why the UFC was shielding him away from me."
Holloway highlighted Topuria's strength of schedule, stating, "He did what he was supposed to do. He won, plain and simple," validating Topuria's impressive performance.
