Holloway was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, and raised in Waianae, an area known for fist fighting.[8][9] He is of Native Hawaiian and Samoan ancestry.[10][11] Holloway's parents were heavy drug users, his mother Missy Kapoi being a crystal meth consumer who later recovered. His father, Mark Holloway, who constantly abused his mother, left when Max was around 11 years old.[12] Max started training kickboxing in 2007 at the end of his sophomore year, aged 15, out of Team Ruthless, and went on to win his first amateur bout in the sport after three days of training.[13] He graduated from Waianae High School in 2010.[14]
Mixed martial arts career
Early MMA career
At the age of 19, Holloway had amassed a record of 4–0. He gained recognition as the #7 featherweight prospect of 2012 in Bloody Elbow's 2012 World MMA Scouting Report and was compared with former UFC and former WEC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis, due to his ability to incorporate a wide array of flying and spinning kicks, knees and elbows into his striking game. He would later go on to defeat Pettis to capture the UFC featherweight championship before unifying the title.[15]
His early career was highlighted by a split decision win over former Strikeforce[16] and WEC veteran Harris Sarimento on March 12, 2011, earning himself the lightweight strap for the Hawaii-based X-1 promotion.[17]

Holloway was the youngest fighter on the UFC roster when he made his promotional debut as an injury replacement for Ricardo Lamas at UFC 143 on February 4, 2012, against Dustin Poirier. He lost the fight via submission (mounted triangle armbar) in the first round.[18]

Pettis was also fined 20% of his purse, which went to Holloway and the bout proceeded at a catchweight.[56][57] Holloway won the fight via TKO in the third round and was awarded a Performance of the Night bonus.[58][59]

Holloway in 2018.
On April 1, 2018, Holloway was announced as a late replacement for the injured Tony Ferguson in a fight for the vacant undisputed UFC Lightweight Championship at UFC 223 against Khabib Nurmagomedov to be held on April 7, 2018. If victorious, Holloway would be only the second fighter (behind Conor McGregor) in UFC history to hold titles in two different divisions simultaneously. Holloway, who had no fight scheduled and was not in a training camp, accepted the fight with only six days to prepare. On April 6, as he was due to weigh in, Holloway was pulled from the card by New York State Athletic Commission doctors due to the severity of his short-notice weight cut.[70] The bout continued with Al Iaquinta as a last minute replacement for Holloway.[71]
For his second title defense, Holloway faced Brian Ortega in the main event at UFC 231 in Toronto, Canada on December 8, 2018.[74] Holloway won the fight via TKO at the end of fourth round by doctor stoppage.[75] This win earned him the Fight of the Night and Performance of the Night awards.[76] Holloway broke the record for most significant strikes in one fight with 290, broke the record for landing 134 of those significant strikes in a round, and set the record for most victories in UFC featherweight history with fifteen.[77] Holloway's significant strike records have since been surpassed by himself when he faced Calvin Kattar at UFC on ABC 1 on January 16, 2021, with 445 significant strikes landed in the fight and 141 landed in round four.[78]

Holloway faced Calvin Kattar on January 16, 2021, headlining UFC on ABC 1.[97] Holloway dominated Kattar for all 5 rounds and won by unanimous decision, with two judges scoring the fight 50–43 and one judge scoring it 50–42 in his favor.[98] During the last two minutes of the fifth round, Holloway landed a two-punch combo and proceeded to stare at the commentary team sitting cage-side and talk to them, while effortlessly dodging Kattar's strikes and yelling "I'm the best boxer in the UFC!" to him, which generated talk about an homage to Muhammad Ali, known for his showboating.[99][100][101] Holloway set the UFC single-fight records for total strikes landed and attempted, significant strikes landed and attempted, strike differential, distance strikes landed, significant head strikes landed and significant body strikes landed. His fourth-round also set the record for strikes and significant strikes landed.[102] Both fighters earned the Fight of the Night award.[103][104]
