Max Holloway announced his readiness to fight the current UFC welterweight champion Islam Makhachev.

“I was asked who I would like to test myself and my skills against. We missed the chance to fight Khabib Nurmagomedov, so now Islam is the next big star. It would be an interesting fight,” Holloway's words are quoted by the UFC press service.

Let us remind you, on March 8, Holloway will conduct a rematch with Charles Oliveira. The fight will take place as part of UFC 326.
