Korean Zombie invited Max Holloway to Korea to hang out with him for a bit. There's several videos of them basically training, eating, and doing karaoke. One clip I found interesting was of Holloway sparring with Joo-Sang Yoo (the guy who got the epic ko at UFC 316). This was obviously before UFC 316, but my takeaway from the sparring was Joo-Sang's style resembles FW Conor. I'm definitely looking forward to his next fight.
 
Well, Korea is still full of TMA, and Conor used to be a traditional martial artist until he tricked himself into thinking he's a boxer, so I figure you're going to see a lot of that, but even having said that, yeah, he is bringing a similar movement to it too
 
Zombie seems like the kind of fighter who’s gonna make a great coach. Excited to see what zombie jr and the rest of his team can bring to the table

I look forward to his next fight too. My only fear is that copies of someone else’s style never end up well. I saw a head kick in that sparring that makes me think he will get dramatically KO’d once he faces a legit striker. Until then, he’ll be fun to watch.
 
Perhaps a Tang Soo Do background, essentially Korean karate. Chuck Norris is a famous practitioner. Jesse Enkamp did a good video on it not too long ago.

Nah, he strictly boxed. Him training briefly at SBG has more to do with his style.
