Pros react to Max Holloway’s TKO victory over Jose Aldo<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hawaiian Max Holloway shocked the crowd in Rio de Janeiro tonight by finishing hometown favorite Jose Aldo with strikes in the main event of UFC 212.<\/p>\n

Aldo had a very successful opening round against Holloway, but by the end of round two it was clear that the tide was turning in favor of the Hawaiian.<\/p>\n

In round three “Blessed” landed a hard right hand that sent Aldo crashing to the canvas. From there, Max took full mount and began raining down ground and pound on his Brazilian foe. Although Aldo showed a ton of heart, the referee was eventually forced to step in and call a stop to the contest with just under a minute to go in round three.<\/p>\n

With the victory, Max Holloway extended his current win streak to eleven in a row and is now the KING of the featherweight division.<\/p>\n

Here is how the pros reacted to Holloway’s historic win:<\/p>\n
