Max Holloway Replies to Troll Who Called Him “Pillow Hands Punching Bag” After Jon Jones & Marlon ‘Chito’ Vera Comparison

Max Holloway is one of the fans’ favorites when it comes to the sport. The UFC featherweight has created an aura of himself which makes it almost compelling to like him. Moreover, he also takes time out to respond to interact with his fans on the internet. The Hawaii-born fighter recently replied to an internet troll that questioned the skill of the future UFC Hall of Famer. It is well known that ‘Blessed’ has broken quite a few records due to his striking inside the octagon.

The troll mocked Holloway on an Instagram post that showed an impressive record shared by Max Holloway, Jon Jones, and Marlon ‘Chito’ Vera.

Max Holloway gives a funny reply to the troll

In a recent post by ESPN on Instagram, it showed one of the greatest accomplishments by 3 UFC fighters. The post stated that out of all the fighters on the roster with more than 20 appearances, only Jon Jones, Chito Vera, and Max Holloway have never been knocked out or stopped by strikes.

This is an incredible feat by these three fighters, as the level of competition that they have faced is incredible. Achieving this is nothing short of a miracle when it comes to the UFC. However, one internet troll was not impressed by the inclusion of Holloway. In a very cheeky manner, the troll took a jibe at the former featherweight camp and said, “Max “Pillow hands punching bag” Holloway.” This jibe is in reference to the beating that ‘Blessed’ at the hands of Alexander Volkanovski in their third fight.

However, Max Holloway is a good sport and took the comment well. He responded to the comment of the troll, “ayeee come on lol.” The former featherweight champion never loses his wit but also maintains class.

What’s next for Max Holloway?

After clearly wiping out the featherweight division, followed by a subsequent loss against Alexander Volkanovski, Holloway has almost no future in the featherweight division. His third loss against the Pound-For-Pound number-one finished all talks of the featherweight ‘GOAT’.

A career in the lightweight division looks promising as ‘The Blessed Express’ would face new contenders. The trip from 145 to 155 pounds worked for other fighters in the past. Holloway should take a page out of McGregor‘s book and aim for the lightweight championship. He could also face ‘The Notorious’ once he comes back from injury.

Besides, Holloway fought at lightweight against Dustin Poirier and lost against ‘The Diamond’. He could also take inspiration from Charles Oliveira for making the switch from featherweight to lightweight and becoming a champion.

There are good avenues for ‘The Blessed’ in a new weight class. Fans are interested to see if the future is ‘blessed’ for the self-proclaimed ‘Best Boxer’ in the UFC.
