Max Holloway proved once again why he’s one of the best in the fight game on Saturday when he came out on the winning end of a memorable contest with Yair Rodriguez at UFC Fight Night 197.

Holloway (23-6 MMA, 19-6 UFC) showcased all his skills over five rounds in a unanimous decision win over Rodriguez (13-3 MMA, 8-2 UFC) at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and now has back-to-back wins following a pair of close losses in his two-fight series with Alexander Volkanovski.

All signs point to a third fight between Holloway and reigning featherweight champion Volkanovski (23-1 MMA, 10-0 UFC) being next, but is it that obvious?
