00:00scott why do you think that max holloway has the striking edge i think it all comes down to the
00:05volume and i think he's going to flip the script on the first fight between them from 13 years ago
00:10where connor did have that edge at that point in their careers we know max is the volume king
00:15right he's the all-time significant strikes leader he has 50 percent more strikes landed than the
00:21number two guy sean strickland that's 3 600 strikes to 2400 he's number one and two on
00:27distant strikes landed in a fight connor's really going to be very vulnerable with that
00:31leg there i mean he's coming off of a devastating leg break we don't see fighters come back from
00:37that very easily right off of the the jump there that first fight is not an easy one this is
00:42obviously incredibly hard one we saw max in the first fight against connor he was throwing those
00:46leg kicks so he's certainly willing to throw that he loves mixing in the body i think that's going to
00:51wear down the gas tank that we've seen from connor being a much tighter gas tank and i don't think
00:56we
00:56see that with max he tends to get stronger as fights go on he is always winning the volume and
01:00i think that's going to be a major problem for connor he doesn't do well with that i mean what
01:04do you think eric am i am i wrong here what do you got with connor yeah i mean listen
01:09i'll take
01:10connor striking over max's and the reason that i'm going to say that isn't because i think that
01:15connor is going to come in here off of a five-year layoff and just dominate max holloway i really
01:20think
01:20that this comes down to max always been in the game for a long time yes he has most significant
01:25strikes landed in the ufc he's also up there with most significant strikes absorbed he has taken a
01:30lot of damage max has also been knocked down by dustin poirier that just engage you fight was
01:34pretty competitive until the fifth round obviously crazy knockout clearing away max holloway's best win
01:40in some time you know when you look at connor it's been a long time it's been five years
01:44i expect him to have the power advantage and i expect max to have the durability disadvantage
