ATLANTA – It would be difficult for Max Holloway to handle a loss any better than he did after falling to Dustin Poirier in Saturday’s UFC 236 headliner. After losing a unanimous decision to Poirier (25-5 MMA, 17-4 UFC) in the interim lightweight title main event, Holloway (20-4 MMA, 16-4 UFC) walked past press row with his head held high. Before vanishing to the back, though, he stopped to deliver a message to MMA Junkie.
