Former UFC featherweight champion, Max Holloway and top contender, Arnold Allen are scheduled to headline a yet-to-be-announced UFC Fight Night event on April 15.
ESPN's Brett Okamoto was the first to report the news of the matchup being in the works, although the promotion itself has yet to officially confirm anything regarding the booking or event. Holloway is 2-3 in his last five fights and will look to rebound from a unanimous decision loss to reigning UFC featherweight champion, Alexander Volkanovski, in their trilogy matchup at UFC 276 last July. Allen meanwhile is riding a 12-fight winning streak and is coming off a second-round TKO victory over Calvin Kattar at UFC Vegas 63 back in October.
