Max Holloway has gained extra motivation to prepare for and seek victory over Charles Oliveira at UFC 326, scheduled for March 7th. The Hawaiian will face the Brazilian in the main event, in a duel for the BMF belt. Despite the fight already being for a title, the former featherweight champion (up to 65,7kg) sees his family as an additional motivation to deliver his best performance both in training and inside the octagon.
In a video posted to his official YouTube channel, Holloway explained that the toughness of the training routine is part of the process, but stressed that his self-confidence and awareness of the time invested are fundamental to keeping him focused. The fighter emphasized that, during training camp, he gives up moments with his wife and son, just as his coaches also sacrifice family time to be by his side. According to the Hawaiian, recognizing the collective effort of all these people is what motivates him to continue dedicating himself fully towards the UFC 326 fight.

“I mean, training is always hard, you know? Everything you do is hard. What keeps me going is just my self-confidence… During this period, I could be spending time with my family, with my wife or my son. I could be doing things with them. My coaches could also be with their families, but they all sacrificed that to be here with me. So, the main thing that keeps me pushing is seeing all the sacrifices that so many people make for me,” declared Max Holloway.
