The big event for UFC 236 is none other than the Main Card bout between Max Holloway and Dustin Poirier. The Interim Lightweight Title is up for grabs in this all-or-nothing event and these fighters will stop at nothing to win it all. But before fight night actually comes, let’s take a look at these individual fighters in our own version of the ‘tale of the tape’!
Initially, there are no outstanding differences between these two terrific fighters. Both have had successful careers and a good overall record. It should be anybody’s game. But it should be said that Holloway is currently coming from a whopping 13-win streak. His last loss came at the hands of the legendary Connor McGregor, and that was way back in 2013. Since then he has been unstoppable.
Holloway is also riding his own 5-match streak without a loss. And has beaten fighters such as Pettis, Medeiros, and Alvarez. Both are great strikers and we can expect a lightning-fast match between the two.
But the betting world has already made their stakes known. Poirier stands at around +170 and Holloway at a -200. Many claims that by the end of the bout, Holloway will have his fists raised in the octagon as the champion.
