UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway appeared recently on Ariel Helwani’s The MMA Hour, and discussed Floyd Mayweather’s claims to TMZ that he is preparing for a fight in the Octagon, as well as welterweight champ Tyron Woodley’s claims that he will be training him.

In boxing, he’s greatest, Holloway said Monday on The MMA Hour. There’s no hate towards him. He finished smart, he made a lot of money, he changed the sport in a lot of ways, and he got there using his brains and being smart … and not being humiliated.

You guys really believe this guy is going to take an MMA fight, at however old he is right now, against a young guy that’s tough who people consider one of the best in the sport? It just blows my mind, man. If people believe that kind of stuff, it’s wild. I really don’t know what to say.

Woodley is at the next level – he doesn’t just appear on TMZ, he has his won Hollywood Beatdown show.

I love Woodley, said Holloway. Woodley’s the man. He’s a great dude, but I swear he talks about everything. He’s talking about everything. Whatever you can talk about, he talks about it. That guy is always on TMZ or something, so he wants to be talked about all of the time, that’s it. Woodley, you are the man, brother, but I think it’s a PR stunt.

How can you not think it’s not a PR stunt? I don’t know. This guy is always — every time I see on Twitter something retweeting about TMZ, it’s Tyron Woodley talking about it. So it’s like, gosh, is this guy a champion or is he a TMZ reporter? What is going on, my friend?

Holloway is currently recovering from a leg injury, has a doctor’s appointment in around a month, and will learn then if his recovery in continuing, or if he faces surgery.
