Max Holloway vs. Frankie Edgar for the featherweight title in UFC 218 has had to be cancelled after the contender got injured during training, so the champion will defend his title in a rematch against José Aldo.

Exactly, the Hawaiian fighter was talking these days about this new challenge.

"I heard many names: Cub Swanson, Ricardo Lamas, Brian Ortega, Darren Elkins, Tony Ferguson, Conor McGregor. I told UFC that I didn't care who it was. All I asked them was to send me a contract."

"I don't know what many saw in our first fight, but there are those who say that I was losing until I finished him. They must be die-hard Aldo fans. But he has been the best for many years, so to prove that I am the best I will do it."

"I found it a little cowardly for them to say that in the first fight he had an injury and couldn't throw kicks. I hope he doesn't have an injury now and can throw more kicks. He didn't lose because of that, he lost because he was tired in the second round."

Now it's Cub Swanson's turn, one of the ones who could have entered the fight.

"I'll be paid more if I fight for the title or have the title. That's where the big opportunities are, but I haven't had them yet. I would like to be a free agent to have other offers and be able to tell UFC what I'm worth so that they take a step forward. I want to fight in UFC, but I also want to be taken care of and shown what I'm worth."

"Everyone else has had their chances for the title. I don't understand why in 10 years in the company I haven't had the opportunity".

The American fighter will compete against Brian Ortega in December. The winner will be in a very good position to compete for the title next year.
