Max Holloway has finally had his grant for a floral pattern on his fight shorts granted as a number of unique designs were unveiled ahead of UFC 300.
Holloway, a proud native of Hawaii, requested a floral design on his fight trunks ahead of his trilogy fight against Alexander Volkanovski back in 2022.

But it took almost two years for the former featherweight champion’s design dreams to become reality.
Holloway shared the news on social media, with the Hawaiian set to don a pair of fight trunks with a red, blue and white colour pattern; the same colours that feature on the state flag of Hawaii.
The 32-year-old isn’t the only one who will be sporting a unique design in the octagon.
Light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira, women’s strawweight queen Zheili Wang and BMF champ Justin Gaethje will all enjoy custom-made designs for their respective fights.
