Although the main event of UFC 329 ended in an anticlimactic way, there is no denying that the result was positive for Max Holloway and his family. Watching the fight last Saturday (11) in the front row next to the octagon, Rush Holloway, son of the former featherweight champion (up to 65,7 kg), reacted energetically to the end of the fight. The moment was recorded and quickly went viral on social media last Sunday (12).
Alongside his stepmother Alessa, the 13-year-old boy was visibly euphoric as he celebrated his father's victory. Amidst the excitement, he shouted the phrase "Who's your daddy now?", a clear provocation aimed at Conor McGregor , who was defeated by technical knockout due to injury.

The phrase refers to one of the Irishman's own provocations before the fight. In one of the promotional videos for the confrontation, McGregor referred to the Hawaiian as his child. The two had faced each other for the first time in 2013, and on that occasion, McGregor emerged victorious by unanimous decision. At the time, both were still prospects in the featherweight division (up to 65,7 kg).
