A biography for Max Hollowayhasn’t been written yet.
“I just love striking.”
“I don't take that away from Conor, that he beat Chad Mendes on short notice. Chad took that fight knowing he had a chance to beat Conor, so that's Chad's fault he took that fight.”
“MMA is forever evolving.”
“Everybody can get it. I'm here; I want to fight everyone.”
“Conor McGregor set this bar, and I'm trying to break it. If you're not trying to break it, then why are you in the game?”
“The UFC has a mind of its own. Whatever they want to do, I'm down for.”
“I just want to be dominant.”
“I understand; I can see it from two ways: people trying to get that money and leave the game early and people trying to set history or whatever.”
“I ain't asking no one to fight. I've got my throne. If you want it, come see me.”
“There's ways to get the right nutrients and eat the food you want and have it taste great.”
“I want to defend my throne. All my fans know. They love me. I want to defend this; I want to be a champ and keep defending. Come try to take over my village.”
“Depression is real, and that really hit me hard. I was going through a phase where I wasn't talking to no one. Only my son. Me and my son would do stuff, but I was talking to no one.”
“I'm a human just like anyone else, and I understand that, so at the end of the day, you've got to stay humble.”
“It's hard to go out there and protect something that you earned.”
“The obvious thing is I would love to fight Conor McGregor. We've got some history there, and he won, and people saying he didn't knock me out because of an injury he had. I was injured in the fight, too, so let's test that theory. I want to test that theory.”
“If you want to be the best, you've got the beat the best, and the best is 'Blessed,' baby.”
“If I medically can't make the weight, then I'm not going to force my body to do something that it doesn't want to. I'll gladly go up to '55.”
“Anybody and everybody's going to get it. I'm not racing through my division. I'm cleaning it out. So if you want two L's, you're going to get two L's, and if you're looking for one, come fight 'Blessed.'”
“I gotta respect our sport, my division, and the guys that are fighting in it. That's what I gotta do.”
“I'm a family guy, I've got a beautiful wife, a beautiful son, and I couldn't be happier.”
