UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway commented on the upcoming fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov.
"The news was just insane. The manager called me and said that Tony was injured and UFC wants to give me a fight against Khabib. I thought, is it impossible to refuse such an opportunity. Such chances are granted once in a lifetime. Only one guy managed to win the title in lightweight and featherweight divisions, and I'm glad to get the opportunity to become the second fighter in history.
"I'm looking forward to our fight. Is Khabib one of the most dangerous fighters? I do not know why so many people think so, because we are all fighters and we are all training. Let's go into the octagon and find out which of us is better", said Holloway.
The battle of Nurmagomedov and Holloway will take place on April 7 in Brooklyn, USA.
