Max Holloway's impressive victory at the weekend (highlights here) has seen him jump three places in the UFC featherweight rankings. However, he did not move above the man he defeated, Cub Swanson.
Holloway, who is on a six fight winning streak, is now 13-3 in his MMA career. At just 23 he has already had 12 fights in the UFC. Ahead of his victory against Cole Miller back in February, Conor McGregor's coach, John Kavanagh, tweeted that he believes the American to be the second best fighter in the division.
