Video: With a number of options available, what should be next for Max Holloway?

Max Holloway continues to shine as one of the best featherweights on the planet.

The former UFC featherweight champion put on another high-volume striking clinic at UFC Fight Night 197 against Yair Rodriguez, picking up his second unanimous decision win of the year.

Firmly the No. 1 contender in the featherweight division, is it time for a third fight with current champion Alexander Volkanovski, who beat him to win the belt, then beat him a second time to defend it? Both fights were extremely close and very intriguing, so a third fight makes sense.

However, Holloway expressed interest in running it back with former champ-champ Conor McGregor, and also teased a potential move up to lightweight to face current champion Charles Oliveira.

Should Holloway focus on regaining featherweight gold or chase a big money fight?

Our “Spinning Back Clique” panel of Mike Bohn, Nolan King, and Danny Segura discuss this topic with host John Morgan in the video above.

“Spinning Back Clique” is released each Tuesday on MMA Junkie’s YouTube channel. You can watch the full episode in the video below.
