There was a moment in the second round where Dustin Poirier’s punches sent Max Holloway staggering back into the cage. As Max righted himself, he threw both hands up as if to say “We in a fight, you want more?”
It was a perfect microcosm of the entire fight, with Poirier putting hands on the featherweight great like no other fighter has ever done before, and Holloway daring his opponent to try and finish the job.
Hey all, I’ve secretly been working on a book called The Year In Fighting: 2019. It is an illustrated chronicle of everything significant, amazing, and of note that happens in MMA this year. I’ll occasionally post updates here, but you can check out the Patreon page I just launched for regular updates. Thanks for all your support, I can’t tell you how much I enjoy making MMA Squared and this new project.
This is page 1
Take care of yourself and I’ll talk to you tomorrow. Chris.
