“First round, I was feeling him out,” Holloway said after the event. “Second round I thought I was taking over. And then three, four, five, I thought [were] mine.

“They (the judges) saw it another way. There’s only three opinions that matter. Like the great Burt Watson said, 'Don’t leave that (expletive) to the judges.' . . . So let’s [fast] forward to 2020, new year, new me.”

“I think he deserves it [a rematch],” Volkanovski said. “Do I have to beat him to prove I’m a better fighter? I think we had five rounds to do, and I’m pretty sure I won it pretty clearly. But, anyways, people are still going to doubt. . . But I’ll be ready for it, and he does deserve it.”
. . .
“I’m gonna sit down with my team,” Holloway said. “Watch the tape. Sit down with Dana. . . . I’m a fighter . . . I fight. But it’s a team decision with me. It’s not a me thing. I’m not all about myself. My team got me here. I’m going to sit down with my team, talk to Dana, and we’ll go from there.
. . .
“We’ll be back. I’m only 28. . . . I’ll be back and we’ll be ready.”
