Shout out to Megan Olivi, it feels like forever since I’ve seen her do a proper pre-fight interview with anyone. I mainly just see her in those short 6 minute backstage interviews
I genuinely enjoyed this interview. Caught myself laughing and really enjoying it throughout. With a Nina interview. She acts to corny and tries too much.
@@subutai999 how's that exaggerated? The charity work he's done has changed people's lives forever, there are a lot of people who are in a much better place in life because of him. That's the kind of stuff that lives on long after anything you do in sports.
He did nothing greater than lose 3 times to the same guy, Ilia beat, and lost twice to a guy Islam beat by finish, no legacy for him let Alone bigger than combat sports
@@Vempss nobody is doubting him, all fighters 100-1 are picking him over ilia even 80 percent of mma fanbase is rooting for max, its ilia people are doubting.
Megan is the best. So glad to see her career intact and improving. Not anyone can interview UFC fighters. She has lived the life. She knows. That can not be duplicated.
@@soknheith3259 I'm a big fan of athletes who make a positive impact outside of sports. There are people who's lives have been changed forever because of him, and that's a lot bigger than any octagon title or record.
Everybody has their favorites and many are passionate supporters, but at the end of the night all fighters that step inside that ring deserve respect. And Max is a positive spirit win or lose, he won't make excuses , if Topuria is better at the end of the night he will give him his props.
That "pointing to the ground" thing is so iconic now. All the fighters try to do it nowadays haha, but it never works out for them. I feel like Max is the only person that can initiate it.
ESPN is smart for keeping Megan Olivi around. She is about the only MMA interviews I will watch and listen. Thanks Max. Good Luck this coming Saturday.
@@maans9936Start coping now bc you know it's not going down like that. There's a reason UFC kept Topuria away from Max & you're about to find out October 26th why that is.
@@maans9936max has no say in that and it doesnt make sense. The whole point of that belt is so you can book a non title fight at the top of the card. Illa was shitting his pants watching Max ko Justin. He knows what's coming
Topuria is gonna be one of the hardest fights max has ever had. But too many times I’ve doubted him to see him absolutely dominate his opponent. Max holloway and new Oct 26th!!
Ilia fades. His style of high guard & working your way inside won’t work with max. Ilia didn’t clear out the division to get the belt. Max did. Max will pressure to make ilia burn energy
Both Nina and Megan are great in their own respective. It’s nice to see a quality interview between Max and Megan though, very professional and informative.
Max the featherweight GOAT in my book and one.of the best to ever do it!! Can't wait for Max vs Topuria, Topuria will learn there is.levels to the game
I’m in my mid-30s and not well spoken either. The words don’t flow out as easily and elegantly for me as they do for others. I appreciated his comment about that. Being well spoken is a real skill and I wish I was better at it. But hard to improve something like that in your mid-30s
Find a book/speaker you like. Read the book outloud or watch, turn on the subtitles, and speak along with them. It's the same way people who know 5 languages learn. You'll be golden in no time.
Great interview but the VERY first question Max said Justin had nothing to gain everything to lose then Megan's follow up was "I like how you said he had nothing to lose"
Actually I don’t want neither of them to loose😅 Even tho Ilia is cocky he is a great sportsman and knows how to trash talk within the limits and Max how can you not like this dude man
Hands down probably the chillest and most approachable guy to ever put on the 4 oz gloves. I've met dozens of champs and hundreds of pros, 99% of them have been incredibly cool. This dude seems like the epitome of cold blooded chiller. Would love to smoke a J and catch some waves with him.
I don’t see how people think Max is going to lose. You can’t believe that Ilia is going to beat him over 5 rounds, and you’ve never seen someone at 145 put Max in jeopardy of getting slept. The only time we have seen Max on the brink of a KO was against Dustin, and he got through that. Ilia has a chance..he’s a very good fighter, but no one SHOULD be picking against Max.
Every fighter has never been knocked out until its happening. At some point it is the first time for everyone. But I see what you‘re saying.. if Ilia doesnt KO Max or gets him to the ground I don‘t see Ilia win this matchup. He is very dangerous with every punch but if he really goes 25 min with max holloway he is probably gonna lose his belt
Why pick against the undefeated champion, who is 16-0, and is well rounded, mainly in Grappling and jiuJitsu, and with Ko Power? For me is clear, Max got problem vs Volk, lost 3 vs him....for me is pretty clear, Is easy Job for Ilia.
Ilia just need to use his grappling in 3 rounds, he will try to KO him in the first 2 rounds, then he will switch to grappling, ground and pound and summision @@Maxxx866
@@totnguyen2696 Volk is special. Max couldn’t melt him like he does everyone else. But Ilia has never ever had to go where Max can/does take his fights. The UFC is about beating the best fighters. Max is possibly the best ever at that weight class. We SHOULDNT expect someone to do anything to him that’s never been done.
Great interview. Nothing but respect for Max. He is such a respectful humble character. Wish him the best in his next fight and hope he is able to humble Illa who in my opinion beat a broken Volk who really needed to rest his head 12 months minimum after the devastating head kick that injured Islam's shin it was so hard.
