It's hard not to like arnold allen

Max takes a low blow in the opening minute and thankfully we're back underway quickly #UFCKansasCity

High kick from Allen. Both men land jabs. Holloway goes to the body & a 1-2 upstairs. Body combo from Holloway. Body kick from Holloway, Allen with a left hook counter. Right from Holloway. Allen with a body kick, eats a left. Holloway jabs the body & lands a 1-2. #UFCKansasCity

10-9 Holloway in the first. Just did a bit more than Allen.

Max is smooth and patient.. a true veteran of our sport at the highest level #UFCKansasCity

Overhand left by ALlen lands, and then he lands a combination.

Arnold got some respect now and has Max being a little more cautious, tentative in spots. But he’s targeting the body extremely well which may lay off in the later rounds. 19-19

Holloway up 2 in my opinion. His ability to counter Allen’s power with 3-4 strikes is amazing!! #UFCKansasCity

Allen better that round closing gap but Holloway upped his countering, close rd. Edge Holloway. #UFCFightNight #UFC

Allen is whiffing a lot on these shots

— caposa (@Grabaka_Hitman) April 16, 2023

29-28 Holloway after 3

Arnold Allen going to the championship rounds for the first time in his UFC career

This is the eighth straight fight that Holloway has gone past the third #UFCKansasCity

Allen trying to use the elbow guard I had success with as a southpaw with Max! Big rounds next!

— The Diamond (@DustinPoirier) April 16, 2023

Another one for Holloway. Allen is throwing heat but Max’s distance management and combos are shining! #UFCKansasCity

— Wonderboy (@WonderboyMMA) April 16, 2023

Holloway takes fourth 10-9. He’s up 39-37 on my card. Though fourth round was close. #UFCKansasCity

— Kevin Iole (@KevinI) April 16, 2023

Allen corner tells him the truth. You gotta stop him. World War 3. ##ufckansascity

— Fight Ghost (@Fight_Ghost) April 16, 2023

Allen's corner telling him to go to war. Needs a KO to win. Allen says "Dan Hooker time?" and corner agrees. #UFCKansasCity

— Bloody Elbow (@BloodyElbow) April 16, 2023

Max is out landing him, and doing overall more damage. I got it 4-0 for max going into the 5th. #UFCKansasCity

— Brad Tavares (@BradTavares) April 16, 2023

Holloway is like a maestro conducting an orchestra, controlling the rhythm. #UFCKansasCity

— Teddy Atlas (@TeddyAtlasReal) April 16, 2023

This is impressive from Arnold Allen no matter the outcome. Felt the same sort of way after Yair Rodriguez fought Max Holloway.

— Eric Jackman (@NewYorkRic) April 16, 2023

Frankly stunned Max Holloway's chin is still as good as it is after all these wars. Man is made out of concrete. #UFCKansasCity

— Shaheen Al-Shatti (@shaunalshatti) April 16, 2023

I have it 48-47 Max.

2 of 3 judges would have to give Arnold both rounds 2 and 4, the two closest rounds of the fight, in order for him to win, which I think is very unlikely.

— Aaron Bronsteter (@aaronbronsteter) April 16, 2023

Some vintage Max Holloway in the final seconds of the fight. Rocked Arnold Allen, who had a fantastic round to that point. Holloway should take a decision in a good performance. Will be interesting to see where he goes with the mic time.

— Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) April 16, 2023

Max took that IMO…. He is masterful out there. Totally in his element. born for it. #UFCKansasCity

— Wonderboy (@WonderboyMMA) April 16, 2023

Max showing great fight IQ and experience. High level fight…well done lads ???? #UFCKansasCity

— Alex Volkanovski (@alexvolkanovski) April 16, 2023

Blessed is back!!

— Belal Muhammad (@bullyb170) April 16, 2023

Incredible bounce back performance for Holloway after it was unclear where he stood following Volk 3.

Also big takeaway: Alex Volkanovski is really, really good.

— Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) April 16, 2023

Well done max. Well done
