The first UFC main event winner of the year set a high bar Saturday when Max Holloway dominated Calvin Kattar at UFC on ABC 1.

Holloway (22-6 MMA, 18-6 UFC) delivered a statement in his first non-title fight since June 2016, putting on a historic and record-setting performance against Kattar (22-5 MMA, 6-3 UFC) en route to a unanimous decision win at Etihad Arena on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.

“Blessed” is now back on track following a pair of controversial title-fight losses to Alexander Volkanovski. A trilogy fight between the two is the talk of the town, but Volkanovski must first fight Brian Ortega at UFC 260 on March 27.

What does that mean for Holloway? Watch the video above for thoughts and analysis on his future after UFC on ABC 1.
