Max Holloway Form
Max Holloway is former UFC featherweight champion with a professional record of 23-7 (10 KO/TKOs, 2 subs).
Holloway rode a 13-fight win streak between January 2014 and December 2018 that propelled him to the very top of the featherweight division.
He stopped Anthony Pettis in the third round to become the interim champion in December 2016, and several months later became undisputed champion by stopping Jose Aldo in the third.
‘Blessed’ repeated that result in the rematch with Aldo, before going on to stop Brian Ortage in four rounds.
Holloway then attempted to become a two-weight champion when he challenged for the lightweight title in April 2019, but that quest ended in failure as he dropped a decision to Dustin Poirier.
He rebounded when he returned to the featherweight division to beta Frankie Edgar by decision, but that proved to be his final successful defence.
The Hawaiian fighter dropped back-to-back decisions to Alexander Volkanovski as he lost the title and then failed to regain it.
He did get back on track in 2021, beating both Calvin Katter and Yair Rodriguez by decision, but his sole outing in 2022 resulted in another decision defeat to Volkanovski.
Arnold Allen Form
Arnold Allen is the #4 ranked featherweight fighter with a professional record of 19-1 (7 KO/TKO’s, 4 subs).
Allen debuted in the UFC in June 2015 and won his first outing in the Octagon, beating Alan Omer by third-round submission.
He then went on to beat Yaotzkin Meza by unanimous decision and Makwan Amirkhani by split decision, before submitting Mads Burnell in the third round in May 2018.
The 29-year-old Englishman then beat Jordan Rinaldi by unanimous decision, before recording the biggest win of his career up to that point with a decision victory over Gilbert Melendez.
Nik Lentz and Sodi Yusuff were then beaten by unanimous decision as Allen continued his rise up the featherweight rankings.
He ended his finish drought with a first round TKO victory over Dan Hooker, before a doctor stoppage handed him a victory over Calvin Katter last October.
Verdict
Arnold Allen is a man on the rise, but Max Holloway remains one of the very best at featherweight.
He is backed to keep the fight standing and outstrike Arnold Allen on his way to a decision victory.
