Max has given a heart warming message on social media, but no one has a clue what was the reason for the pull out.
 
Sounds like something serious if he is likely not fighting again in 2018... Just hope he comes back healthy and blessed.
 
ive seen both thrown around but no offical statement...

tbh... unless he was sparring hard withing the last week or so i doubt those symptoms would be that pronounced... i am purely basing this off of my own concussions and what ive seen in others over 16 years of competing.

but im not a doctor and shouldnt pretend to know what im talking about.
if that is from sparring a few weeks ago... then hes in deep shit.
whats worrying is his training partner Yancy Mederios sounded pretty fucked up in interveiws for the count down
but max sounded fine.

i dunno.
 
I don't think we have enough information yet. I'm sure we'll have something confirmed within the week.
 
Paging Dr. Sherdog...paging Dr. Sherdog....we need some random bros to offer their non-scientific, non-medical, non-educated, non-expert opinions on UFC fighter Max Holloway's medical condition...

We dont know what weight he was at or when he started cutting. He was pale as possible in his interviews...I dont think that was because of concussion.
 
Who cares pulling out is pulling out the only thing you pull out last minute is a vag. (Vag means vagina for all the virgins here)
 
He didn't look gaunt n really skinny
That's why people were worried, it's like he had no idea that he was fukd up. That's the troubling part
 
Well they said he crashed out. Had trouble waking up, When he did wake up he was seeing flashing lights in his vision and he was having trouble speaking.. He looked like a different person in his open workout. His interviews were off and strange. All this combined was enough for him to go to hospital and fight was called off.

That is about it in a nutshell. I don't think anyone knows what has caused all this. We can all speculate but all we know is it is scary stuff and these symptoms are not normal or something to write off.

Dana said he ain't coming back anytime soon and they are going to test and treat him until they figure it all out. He mentioned the Mayo Clinic. Usually that is not a good sign. Means they don't know what the heck is wrong and need some serious scientists and docs working together to get to the bottom of this. We will see i guess.

All we can do is hope and pray that he gets well and his tests come back positive.

The issue didn't start at the interview, he looked pale because by then he was cutting weight.

He was taken for a scan days before that when he wasn't cutting because he was showing symptoms

Man I can't say for sure. From observation I think it's head injury. He appears to have had issues for a while now. I wonder if it's from a head injury that went undiagnosed and Max's hawaii spirit kept it quiet and it just got worse and worse.

I've never seen somebody before with slurred speech on multiple occasions from a bad weight cut. I hope it is weight cutting issues but I have serious doubts about that.

I hope max is gonna be ok and keep fighting
 
I suggest it was a weight cut related concussion. That covers all the bases.

He is suffering from head trauma and should retire so hes ok rather than come back after some healing and be ruined like gray Maynard

ATTENTION EVERYONE. THIS IS ABOUT AS STUPID AS HUMANS GET.

BEHOLD
 
Ok sorry for asking dumb question. But I cant find any clear reason why he was pulled. And this is second fight in row he has been pulled. He also seem a bit off. Is there something serious going on here? Again sorry if the information is out there and Im being a dumbass
