Max Holloway returns to the UFC Octagon for the first time since his third loss to UFC Featherweight Champion Alexander Volkanoski. With his name all across the UFC record books, Holloway looks to add to his Hall of Fame resume another win over an undefeated prospect.
Arnold Allen enters UFC Kansas City facing the toughest test of his career with an opportunity to earn a UFC title shot by beating the man who was long considered to be the Featherweight GOAT.
With Holloway only losing to Alexander Volkanovski and Dustin Poirier, at Lightweight, over the past decade, Allen has a difficult task. But if Allen is victorious this weekend, he will truly establish himself as one of the best fighters in the UFC today.

In the co-main event, perennial UFC contender Edson Barboza looks to end a two-fight losing streak against the always-exciting Billy Quarantillo. With both men being fringe-ranked Featherweights, the winner should be in for a big ranked matchup next.
Also, on the UFC Kansas City main card is a Light Heavyweight matchup between two of the division’s best strikers, Dustin Jacoby and Azamat Murzakanov. With Jacoby only having one loss, which was a controversial split decision, in his current UFC run and Murzakanov undefeated, we should see an incredible fight between the two men.
